Meet Maxi Lau. She’s the owner of Maxi’s Noodle, a small but mighty noodle soup shop in Flushing, Queens. Opening a wonton restaurant was initially her mother’s dream, but a serious cancer diagnosis derailed those plans. After her mother died, Maxi decided to rebuild her own life. Leaving her job in corporate management, she retraced her mother’s steps, learning to make wontons with a family friend in Canada. Three years later, Maxi’s Noodle was up and running. “Anything to do with my shop, it reminds me of mom,” she says. “The shop equals mom.”

She's got a lot of that New York and Hong Kong/Cantonese spunk...and, a lot of determination. Maxi's mom would be abundantly proud.

Can I give a shout out to her aunt’s place, Kissena Cafe? It was one of the very few edible places for students in Queens College, and the aunt/uncle always huddled around a small electric hot plate churning out coffee, tea, and sandwiches. You can smell the kitchen and feel warm and welcoming despite such a small place. They were always nice. I remembered seeing Maxi’s flyers in their shop and people still popping in and ask “where’s the wonton?” 😂

One of the best stories I have seen in a long time, and I appreciate that they are speaking in Cantonese. I’m Cantonese, and lost both my parents, so seeing her talk to her dad, argue to resolve, laugh and love on video makes me remember whatever culture background you have, food, family and love bring us together. Thank you Maxi family for being authentic and thank you NYT for sharing a story of love. ❤

I love Maxi’s wontons and lo mein. Yea, she seems like she’s always rushing but that’s what makes her business successful. I’m not there to shoot the breeze. I’m there to indulge and feel transported back to Hong Kong. Thank you Maxi for working so hard so we can enjoy the fruits of your labor. You make your momma proud. ❤

I'm so excited to see Maxi's Noodle profiled in the NYTimes!! Their food is genuinely so good. My dad is a super harsh critic (if you're Cantonese too, you know) and he says these are some of the best wontons he's had, and we constantly keep a pack of their wontons in the freezer. Wishing them continued success!

@Rebecca-dm5ul Год назад

My heart breaks for you. Mom's oncologist was heartbroken when he got the results that she was terminal after 17 years of battling. They both had an amazing relationship. He asked if I could tell her. Hardest conversation I've ever had. I came home early, she said she knew I had bad news. I still perfect my mom's dishes, a few weeks before her death she woke up at 4 am to prepare Thanksgiving dinner. I woke to hear pans falling. I told her I'd do it, she should rest She looked at me and said it's our last thanksgiving, I'm not dead. Let me do this. Its been 23 years and I still remember her passion, drive and culinary skills.

@maxisnoodle6891 Год назад

WOW! It hits home to hear stories like this because I don't have people who went through what I did around me that I know. It's hard to explain and relate when it didn't happen to them. Obviously this isn't a topic you bring up on a common convo. But yeah WOMEN in general we are just strong AF! Clearly both of our mothers are super heroes! REST IN PEACE ANGELS!!😇😇

@williamzhang8473 Год назад

A story as heartwarming as a bowl hot wonton noodle shop, I'm happy to see Maxi redirecting her grief and applying her grit and determination to create something very special for herself, her family, and her patrons and community. Starting a restaurant is no easy task and doing it after losing her mother and changing careers entirely is just beyond comprehension. I grew up wrapping wontons with my mom I'm glad I learned the skill, while still working in the corporate world. Good job NYT, keep these stories coming!

My dad and I ate at this shop last summer when we were staying with my family in Flushing, NYC. Let me tell you, the food was incredibly DELICIOUS especially for its value. We just weren’t expecting to be so blown away because the restaurant was so hole-in-the-wall. Now watching this on NYT and also hearing the store’s backstory makes me appreciate it all more. Best of luck to this family, and I will be back soon!

And they play into their own unique strengths and put that into their relationship and their shop. I would love to eat their food and experience their restaurant. There is so much attention and intention put into everything they do. 💕

@eileen4876 Год назад

her mom would be so proud looking at the wontons and the shop! great energy and emotion that carries over to the food, from training with family friends (sounds like an epic training montage hearing that she started from cutting the scallions right and having to practice with massage balls haha) to the humor and partnership between she and her dad share together. it's beautiful to see something like this in honor of her mom that could be shared with the community

Been eating here regularly for years since they first opened. It's fantastic and authentic Hong Kong style with huge bulbous shrimp wontons. Undoubtedly the 2nd best wonton noodles in NYC. That's a compliment considering how many rival shops there are. Their customer service is extremely rude but I just somehow convince myself that it adds to the Hong Kong authenticity. Always fond of her dad though. He's funny and calming. He loves chatting with the regulars. Will be back soon!

@Libbybabyify Год назад

I have laughed and cried and rushed and bantered with her dad with her throughout the video. The loss of a parent and the grief that comes with it needs courage,perseverance and going through the feelings and hopefully making something out of it that lends credence to their memory. You are doing well Maxi.

She has allowed herself to take on the the advice of her elders, she is determined, and you can see she has worked extremely hard to make this happen.

Her cancer is Ferocious Type which deteriorated by days. She pass away in 6 months time. I understand how you have to goes through cancer parent. You are very strong woman. Wanton Noodles goes well with dry (kon loh) too with best made char siew (pork belly). Yes! Unique giant size wanton. You need two types dry (kon loh) & Soup. Because regular client cannot be eating soup all the time & want change dry. Put in lots of blanc green (bean sprout, bok choy, lettuce leaf, or choy sum). I love a bowl of noodles with lots of vegetables.
