Jackson Heights, as the episode notes, has historically been the first stop for United States immigrants there’s a big Latino and South Asian presence here, but the newer, Tibetan community has been growing in recent years. According to Yelper Jenny T., the momos (South Asian dumplings) served here “ are off the hook.” That’s exactly what Bourdain choose to feast on, in addition to thenthuk (hand-torn noodle soup with chilis and ginger) and shapta (chili-fried beef). in Jackson Heights, Lhasa Fast Food is tucked away in an unlikely location: down a long corridor inside a cellphone store, which is also home to jewelry and luggage shops. Aguilar is the owner of Casa Enrique (5-48 49th Ave.), the only Mexican restaurant in New York City with a Michelin star. Restauranteur Cosme Aguilar also joins Bourdain and Smookler at Geo Si Gi. Restaurant critic Pete Wells of The New York Times noted that it serves the #1 ramen in New York City - a review that Smookler admits made him cry. Mu Ramen has come along way since its humble start inside a bagel shop. While dining together at Geo Si Gi Restaurant in Flushing, Smookler reveals details about how he started his wildly popular restaurant in Long Island City. Joshua Smookler - the chef and owner of Mu Ramen (1209 Jackson Ave.) - serves as Bourdain’s culinary tour guide for his next stop. “Yu Garden dumplings is everything you need in life,” says Bourdain, who visits the Shanghainese restaurant at the suggestion of his friend, a native Queens resident. According to the show, Flushing is the place for amazing Chinese or Korean food - just like home. in Flushing, Bourdain tries spicy beef and tripe, boiled pig tongue and tripe (marinated in sugar and soy), lion’s head meatballs (made with pork, ginger and soy), and ground pork soup dumplings.
