Chung Chun Kitchen: Reviews & Ratings
Prices have gone up but it's still my goto for Chinese food in Clinton hill. Love their egg drop soup and wonton soup.
If you live in Clinton Hill/ Fort Greene, this has to be your go to fast food Chinese joint. It's nothing to write home about, it's not a culinary experience, but if you're too lazy to cook, hit them up for their sesame chicken, chicken and broccoli, and maybe some wings. You won't be disappointed. Just don't go off menu and try some seafood delight nonsense, stick to simple stuff.
Well we're all in quarantine. It's a crazy time. As one who ate out a lot it's been quite a change to switch to almost solely cooking. However, my girlfriend and I decided, for our sanity and to support the struggling restaurant biz, to order out. I'd been craving Chinese and most in our and the surrounding neighborhoods were shut. We landed on Chung Chun after looking around a bit. We ordered egg drop soup, an egg roll, a few spring rolls, two orders of fried pork dumplings, beef lo mein, sesame chicken, shrimp with broccoli and roast pork with broccoli. We seriously stocked up. And boy oh boy did it pay off. I'd ordered from there once before and was pretty disappointed, but this time almost everything was seriously delish. A classic egg drop and a solid spring roll with a variety of veggies began things. The dumplings were very good, maybe I'd just been craving them so bad that I wanted them to be good but I think overall they were just damned good. The shrimp with broccoli was certainly above average, I've had better but this was also much better than others I've had. The lo mein and egg roll were welcome but probably just par. The two dishes that stood out were the roast pork with broccoli and the sesame chicken. I'm a big fan of roast pork and it was just about exactly the way I like. The sesame chicken was a bit of a surprise! It can always go either way, especially with takeout. It's either good or it's a bit soggy with more batter than meat. This was beyond good, still hot with an excellent ratio of batter to chicken. We certainly had leftovers for a few days. The prices are very good so treat yourselves and give back a bit! Everyone stay safe and well!
