    One of the best zongzi I’ve had in NYC. I’m glad she had the simple, pork-only ones I prefer (I went to Deluxe Food Market first, and they seemed to all have egg yolk / peanuts / etc. that I personally don’t like). 10/10!

  2. I haven’t had zongzi in a long time. My late grandfather used to make these at home, he set up a bunch of stuff on a table in his living room and make them by hand.

    Nice. I was just thinking the other day that I wanted to get some from her.

    my cousin and I were tripping on acid on a cold February day and we came to Chinatown down from the American Museum of Natural History. we always see the Zongzi grandma and since it was such a cold day, we wanted to give her some money because we felt bad. So we went up to her and handed her a 20. Mind you she speaks Mandarin and neither of us spoke it, but she starts speaking to us and all we could do was stare at her because again we were on acid. She eventually got tired of trying to communicate so she picked 4-5 sticky rices for us. We didnt even want any we just wanted to give her money 😭 i still laugh thinking about how dumb we must’ve looked

  6. Glad to see her on the internet. I sometimes buy from her but feel bad when I don’t have cash. Her zongzi is really good.
