A new Chinatown is emerging in Sheepshead Bay, and Bing Bakery makes some of the best baked pork buns in the neighborhood. The bread has a light, chewy texture very similar to challah. The diced pork filling, tender and moist, comes in a sweet BBQ-style sauce that’s bursting with flavor. With a nice filling-to-bread ratio, there’s meat in every bite.

G&S Pork Store serves prosciutto balls just like your little Italian grandmother would make, if you had one. These fried balls of ricotta, mozzarella, provolone and prosciutto covered in light bread crumbs are amazingly grease-free and strangely light — not to mention, highly addictive.

Kumpir, baked potato stuffed with black and green olives, corn, pickles and Russian salad, is a street food in its native Turkey. The potato is as large as a small child’s head. Topped with ketchup and mayo, this is truly an outstanding meal. Take it from the menu, which literally reads, “YOU SHOULD TASTE THIS, once in your life.”

Israeli couscous is not couscous at all, but a small round pasta made of hard-wheat flour. It’s considered kid’s food in Israel, but in Brooklyn we spice it up. This Israeli couscous takes its flavors not from Jerusalem or Brooklyn, but from Bollywood. Flavored with Indian spices, raisins and red peppers, it whisks you away to India from your first bite.

Taste of Romania serves up some of the smokiest pastrami east of Bucharest and north of the Mason-Dixon line. This in-house, cured and smoked pastrami on a house-baked roll easily challenges Katz’s for the pastrami house throne, and at a fraction of the cost.
