Chang Lai

Cozy small little shop selling heart warming comfort food. The flavours were on point. I ordered the curry fish balls and added mixed beef. The taste sure brought a smile especially on the cold, snowy day.

I've been eating here since I was in college (from food truck to storefront, the Rice Noodles and Curry Fish Balls have always been of high quality and delicious)... This is my favorite place... The springy, fresh, and piping hot rice noodle rolls and curry fish balls are a must-try whenever I'm in Chinatown. The owners, a husband and wife, are always friendly and welcoming. The small shop is clean and tidy.

The owner is so sweet, kind & accommodating! I changed my mind about what sauce I wanted after my food came and he didn’t mind at all & even suggested some to me. The rice rolls were so fresh & silky.

Yo, my guy here loves what he does and it shows in the food he serves and his customer service. Mind you, I'm an introvert, but in the short ordering interaction, he was able to ask where I was visiting from, my nationality, and even spoke to me in my language with what he knew. Truly wholesome. We got the signature curry fish balls and he recommended all the sauce add ons since I'd never had it before. He also made sure to ask about peanut allergies since peanut sauce was one of the add ons. It was FIRE. The rice noodles had the perfect chewey consistency, without being mushy or breaking apart easily, which is super impressive for that kind of noodle. The full sauce combo is a must. It is sweet/savory perfection. The value is insane for what you get and how freakin good it is. This Chinatown gem is a true Godsend that I must return to next time I'm in NYC. Praise the Lawd! Masarap! Salamat!

I ordered a curry fish ball rice noodle with a milk tea. Very good! Hit the spot! The place is small but has some stool seating. Nice spot to drop in for a quick lunch or takeout.
