Carol's Bun, a hidden gem in Chinatown, is a small hole-in-the-wall shop offering a variety of Cantonese dishes at reasonable prices. Known for their specialty dishes like soft shell crab and pork dumplings, customers also enjoy taking home delicious freezer items such as curry beef brisket and oxtail stews. The restaurant is a reliable spot near the F train, providing a Too Good To Go box with generous portions including general tso's chicken and steamed minced pork, perfect for sharing. The food feels fresh and made with care, with dishes like soup dumplings featuring thin wrappers and flavorful broth, and chewy, comforting noodles. Many customers appreciate the affordability and quality of their casual lunch and dinner options, with some mentioning that the frozen dumplings have a great wok hei flavor. While some note that congee is cooked with pork and not available plain, they still enjoy the overall authentic taste. With many people stopping by for takeout, Carol's Bun offers a variety of sides to go with rice, making it feel just like home for those craving warm and satisfying meals. Overall, the food is great and very inexpensive, making it a popular choice for locals and visitors alike.
