As a kid, my folks used to take me down to Chinatown all the time for delicious, inexpensive Chinese food. Their favorite was a place called Sun Lok Kee at 13 Mott, which later moved to Flushing, Queens (which was convenient after a Mets game), and sadly closed last year.  Now Mom and Shel eat at Great NY Noodletown, which appeared today on a list of great Chinese restaurants on Spire.  The folks at Spire share my perspective on quality and the value of savvy, curated information.  They recently published this list of great NYC Chinatown restaurants.  Read the article on Suzanne's Files for complete descriptions.
