" Just got back from this fantastic little food cart! Talk about a hidden gem! We were pleasantly surprised by the silky texture of the cheong fun, and it had an authentic taste that reminded me of my grandmother's cooking. We had char siu and shrimp, and they were both delicious. The prices are ridiculously low for the quality you're getting. Definitely a must-try when you find yourself in Chinatown! " (*Curated Review*)

" I finally got around to trying Cheong Fun Cart, and wow, what a treat! The cheong fun is so incredibly smooth and fresh, I couldn’t believe the price! The shrimp and char siu both packed a punch in their flavors. It’s amazing how this small cart can produce such delicious rice rolls. I’ll definitely be recommending this place to my friends and plan to return very soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Best cheong fun in New York City for sure! The rice rolls were beyond my expectations, especially price and taste. I’m a frequent diner here, and I always come back because it never disappoints. The wait time is nothing compared to the deliciousness you get in return. If you're craving authentic rice rolls, Cheong Fun cart is the go-to place! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the pleasure of visiting Cheong Fun Cart while exploring Chinatown, and I was blown away by how inexpensive it was. The cheong fun was warm, fluffy, and delicious. I had the shrimp with the thick sweet sauce, which gives a unique spin on the traditional recipe. I would say not for those who like more savory flavors, but for me, it was a hit. I want to try other varieties on my next trip! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was really looking forward to trying this place after reading all the reviews, but it was just okay. I ordered the shrimp rice roll, and while the shrimp was decent quality, the noodle itself lacked flavor. I think I expected more given the reputation. I'd recommend a visit for their low prices, but don’t go in with sky-high expectations. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you want a taste of cute, authentic cheong fun with a unique street food experience, look no further! The prices were fantastic, and the flavors transported me straight back to my childhood in Hong Kong. The shrimp was plump and cooked to perfection. I had to have another one! The only downside was waiting in line, but I’d say it’s worth every minute. I doubt you’d find anything quite like this! " (*Curated Review*)

" Definitely a must-try for anyone visiting Chinatown. I went during peak lunch hours, and it got crowded fast, but the ladies were quick and organized. Tried the pork and egg rice roll, and it didn’t disappoint. The combination of flavors was on point, and I’d recommend trying the chili sauce for a bit of spice. Caution—bring cash as they only take that! " (*Curated Review*)
