Shanghai Cuisine in Flushing With Soup Dumplings and Sichuan Heat
Order soup dumplings, pan-fried buns and Sichuan plates at a Flushing table built for generous group meals.
🥟 Soup Dumplings and Sichuan Plates
Shanghai cuisine in Flushing gets a bold Sichuan counterpart at Lao Ke Le Shanghai Cuisine on Roosevelt Avenue. Soup dumplings and braised pork anchor the Shanghainese side, while bolder Sichuan plates bring the heat. Start with pan-fried buns, whose crisp bottoms give way to a juicy center, then add salt and pepper pork that stays crisp even after sitting at the table.
Noodle fans can settle into a massive beef noodle soup bowl packed with big chunks of braised beef in rich broth. Stir-fried pea shoots and garlic pork ribs offer a lighter counterpoint, and generous portions with fair prices make a group order easy to build. The clean, straightforward room keeps attention on the plates.
Monday through Friday, the kitchen runs from 11 AM to 10 PM. Saturday and Sunday stretch from half past ten in the morning to half past ten at night, and online ordering is available for a Queens dinner at home.
