  • Jackson Heights, Queens is one of the most culturally and ethnically diverse neighborhoods in New York City. In this week's Dining on a Dime, Lucas Peterson ventures into the back of a cell phone store and finds Lhasa Fast Food, a tiny restaurant that serves delicious, hearty Tibetan food: spicy soups, hand pulled noodles, and momos, a kind of steamed dumpling.

    This kind of food is the best possible scenario for "fusion" food. I have seen similar instances whenever two countries border each other. For example, the north-east side of India (Assam) that borders Burma, has some very special food, that is unlike anything I have ever seen.

    Jackson Heights is an amazing area to live.
    You have asians, a couple of blocks down you have Peruvians, Ecuadoreans, Colombians, Mexicans and hindus.
    The 7 train should be called the gourmet train because all along the 7 depending on which stop you can enjoy different global cuisines

    • @N_zoss
      @N_zoss 7 лет назад +6

      I don't mean to hate because I totally agree with Jackson Heights diversity, but Hindus represents a group of people who believe in a religion, it's not an ethnicity. You can associate food with an ethnicity, but it's not really possible with religion because food can be so different and diverse for people with the same religion. I get what you were trying to say though, but it would be helpful to be a bit more specific.

    Great episode! The food looked so good and it's a unique perspective. I don't think I've seen Tibetan food on any shows? Maybe for future episodes with food like this you can include a subtitle for the name of the dish. That way we can know what to look for on a menu!

    I went to that place. It was good. It was a bit unique. Jackson Heights doesn't have the best food (don't go to the Bangladeshi or Pakistani restaurants) but food like Momo and Indian Biryani and Shish Kebab is always good in this area.

      Lucas replies from his own youtube account. The Eater account is run by a few people, but on Dining On A Dime most of the commenting is done by James, who shoots/edits/produces the show or directs the people that are editing the show. In a shocking twist, James did not write this comment. Pat did. Life is complicated. Thanks for watching.
