    I was never even in Queens when I moved there in 1999 to escape the rent of Manhattan. Little did I know I was moving into the best and cheapest ethnic food in all of NYC. Walk from Sunnyside on Roosevelt Ave and walk the entire way to Jackson Heights and beyond. Explore. When I go back to NYC to visit (in PA now), I hit Queens more so than Manhattan.

    That was a fantastic food review video Jon. The variety of cuisine you showed was off the charts. Bolivian, Lebanese, Algerian and Romanian. Who would have thought. No one does NYC Food reviews like you. The best. Not my type of food but still interesting to see as I am someone who loves cooking and the whole culture around food. I am sure these communities will have appreciated you highlighting their cuisines.

    Yesterday I had Kasbah cafe (ordered the chicken platter and Selecto soda) and Nita’s European Bakery (ordered the cheese paturi, Amandina and cheese danish). All amazing. The people at both places were very nice. I did Greg’s tour last year (John, thank you for advertising his tours in your videos!) and have been in contact with him via e-mail. He recommended I add Philomena’s Pizza when I go to Sunnyside. All I can say is, like John, he sure knows good food. I ordered the Margarita square and plain cheese slice and it was one of the best pizzas’s i have ever had in Queens. To top it off Greg was there eating dinner and introduced me to the owner. I am doing Greg’s tour again today and am looking forward to what is in store.

    I am romanian and I heard the reason there is so much rum flavour in our sweets (also in others that are not here) is that in communist times we had a good relation with cuba, who was also communist, and it was used to hide the lack of real chocolate flavor that was missing because of bad economy lol. But it remained a flavor even to this day and i like it.

    Very nice and very familiar since I’m originally Moldovan pretty similar to Romania used to be part of it at one point and wife is Moroccan. Just some fun info - Algerian food is part of Maghreb cuisine which included also Libya, Mauritania, Morocco, and Tunisia. Which version better depends on the opinion 😀 As for shawarma Lebanon prob has one of the best and one difference from others they make their own special bread for it. And cozonac is actually bread for Easter 😀 There also used to be Moldovan restaurant for many years in Sunnyside but gone long back. Think only remain one in Brooklyn.
