The list includes 17 restaurants located in Queens, spanning several neighborhoods including Long Island City, Astoria, Forest Hills, and Flushing.

Bellwether and Mu Ramen located in Long Island City received the Bib Gourmand designation once more.

Five Flushing restaurants also returned to the list—Tong Sam Gyup Goo Yi, Alley 41, Hunan Cafe, Hahm Ji Bach and Dumpling Galaxy, which is widely popular for it’s extensive selection of flavorful dumplings.

In the Astoria neighborhood, Mar’s and Gregory’s 26 Corner Taverna are on the list once more. Turkish bistro Lokanta, an Astoria establishment that serves home-style Turkish cuisine, was added to the list for the first time.

In Forest Hills, Memories of Shanghai and Spy C Cuisine, both found on Austin Street, were added this year.

The Bib Gourmand awards are given out each year, and are handed to quality restaurants where diners can enjoy two courses and a glass of wine or dessert for $40 or less.

Since the French discriminate against everyone not French, we assume the ratings are on merit only. Since Trump supporters discriminate against knowledge, truth and logic you will be waiting a long time for someone to think your rancid comment witty.

Of course

THE RACIST organization that gives out these Michelin stars don’t choose Latino restuarants but do for white businesses because they’re white supremasists. We must BAN them from NYC NOW

Two Queens community organizations are among an inaugural cohort of five groups citywide that will lead new projects to celebrate local cultures and histories in public spaces under a new initiative called The Local Center in a partnership between Urban Design Forum and the Association for Neighborhood & Housing Development (ANHD).

At a time when New York is grappling with an uneven pandemic recovery and as displacement looms large for communities and neighborhoods across the five boroughs, this new endeavor will convene interdisciplinary teams to transform and activate the shared spaces where cultural traditions flourish — and importantly, center the community visions and leadership that is too often left out of the process.
