Flushing doesn't need another restaurant to prove it's a food destination-but it just got one anyway. Nong Geng Ji, a Hunan cuisine group that built its name in China, will open its first New York City location in Queens on January 18, bringing unique countryside-rooted flavors to 37th Avenue. Founded in 2017, the brand has quickly expanded to more than 100 directly operated restaurants across China, Southeast Asia and Canada.

Did you know that New York City has nine Chinatowns? While Manhattan's Chinatown is one of the best-known Chinatowns in America, Brooklyn and Queens also have multiple neighborhoods where you can find a substantial Chinese immigrant population and delicious restaurants. Flushing, Queens, is home to NYC's largest Chinatown, making it the perfect place for a day trip to savor mouth-watering Chinese cuisine. Come with an empty stomach so you can eat your fill of dumplings and noodles!

An elderly woman was attacked by a stranger while riding an MTA Q98 bus in Flushing during the early morning of Saturday, Sept. 6. Police say the 74-year-old victim was aboard the bus in front of 42-08 Main St. at 4 a.m., when a man approached her and allegedly punched her in the face, causing bruising and pain. The injured woman exited the bus at the Main Street and 41st Avenue stop while the man who assaulted her remained on the Q98 bus.
