Fu Run

Run, don't walk, to Fu Run in Flushing and order the Muslim lamb chops. Covered in a cumin-chili powder-sesame seed combo, these fragrant chops have made a name for themselves throughout the five boroughs, and they're reason enough to include Fu Run on our list. Luckily for your belly, they're not the only reason. Other must-try dishes include the green bean sheet jelly, a slippery starter fit for sharing, and the deep fried pork knuckles. Debating whether the trek on the 7 train is really worth it right now? Put down your phone, pick up your Metrocard and don't waste another minute pondering the answer. Just go.
