Cantonese Rice Rolls in Brooklyn With Just Eight Seats
Order fish balls and tea eggs from a compact 18th Avenue kitchen built around taking your meal to go.
🥢 Small Room, Cantonese Staples
Steam Box puts rice rolls with a soft, delicate texture and fragrant rice flavor at the center of a tiny Cantonese kitchen in Brooklyn. This is a meal built around the house specialty, with fresh fillings tucked into those thin, chewy sheets. A bowl of congee offers another way into the menu, especially when you are planning a daytime food stop.
Traditional red lanterns decorate the room, which fits just eight seats across a couple of small tables. Takeout is the focus here, and the shop accepts cash only for orders. The expanded lineup also includes fish balls, tea eggs, and seafood dishes, giving you more to choose from than the original offering.
Find Steam Box at 6517 18th Avenue, open Monday through Sunday from 8 AM to 5 PM. Keep that afternoon closing time in mind when you plan a pickup.
