Nyc times square & chinatown questions?

[05mak05]

We're staying at the Hampton Inn North at Times Square in Manhatten for 3 days prior to our cruise. I've lost the link on restaurant suggestions for Chinatown and also the Times Square area. One of the ladies in our group has never been to "Tavern on the Green" so we'll eat there one evening prior to the theatre. Other than that, we're interested in moderately priced restaurants with fairly fast service. There was a great link on Chinatown ... wish I could find it again! Thank for your help. Mary

Here is a link on more info to Chinatown, and at the bottom, additional websites with various info, including shopping, food & restaurants, etc.

None of the websites truely list the large number of restaurants with "sub-specialties: Cantonese, Shanghaiese, Taiwanese, Northern (Peking), Vietnamese, Westernized Hong Kong style, etc. doing business in Chinatown - not to mention to the Dim Sum places, BBQ Rices, Noodles & Congee shops, and Bakeries that made/sell easily over 100 different varieies of cakes, pastries & buns, etc.

Don't miss out on the Original Chinatown Ice Cream Factory. It's on 65 Bayard Street (between Mott and Elizabeth). Great flavours like ginger, lychee and green tea. Yum!
