Taiwanese Bento Boxes to Take Home in Flushing
Pick up pork chop or chicken leg bento, plus sweet and salty soups, from a Queens storefront with no seating.
🍱 Bento Beyond the Basics
Pearl Garden puts the focus on classic Taiwanese food to go. The storefront has no tables or chairs, and the kitchen packages its dishes for takeout. Pork chop and chicken leg bento lead the familiar options, with eel and shredded dried bean curd and pork over rice taking the menu further. Taiwanese fried rice cake gives the order another direction beyond the rice boxes.
Sausage and Taiwanese style rice noodles sit among the sides, with sweet and salty soups rounding out the choices. Start with a bento and add something from that second lineup, or make space for a dish outside the usual rice box routine.
Find Pearl Garden on 14th Avenue in the Queens neighborhood of Flushing. It opens Wednesday through Saturday from 11 AM to 8 PM and Sunday from noon to 8 PM, and closes Monday and Tuesday.
