"Huddled between a shop and an alley sits Peking Gourmet, a non descript but decent little Chinese restaurant. P.G. is a copy of many of the small bodega-esque Chinese restaurants that are popular in NYC. Inside, this dour hole in the wall there are not many table/benches for dinning-in because most patrons take away their food. However, if you 're brave and hungry enough to enter this joint, you will find that the place is cleaner than it appears upon first sight. In fact the counters and kitchen look properly maintained and the food seems to be kept safely and handled correctly. Peking Gourmet 's edge over competitors is they specialize in quick meal preparation for either take away or dine-in and dash-out options. Considering, how aesthetically unimpressive the place is inside and out, it is pleasantly surprising that the food is actually pretty good and not mysterious or questionable. It should be noted that P.G. does not have the ability to process debt or credit cards and so it is cash only."
