Although many of the city's most authentic Asian restaurants are now found in the Flushing Chinatown section of Queens and the 8th Ave. Chinatown section of Brooklyn, Manhattan's Chinatown is still home of some of the most exquisite Asian cooking.

     There are many restaurants in each of these Chinatowns.  They all serve a variety of foods from Shanghainese to Szechuan to Cantonese to Malaysian to Vietnamese, and much more.  You'll find that some restaurants are small and others are spacious, some are affordable but others are expensive, some are clean and others not-so-clean, but no matter what kind of restaurant they are, they're sure to serve you some real, authentic, delicious Asian foods.
