Friends and tipsters have been sending me links recently, suggesting Flushing is again burgeoning as a dining destination, after a profound shutdown due to the pandemic. I hurried there on the 7 train the other day, and found that many outdoor dining shelters have appeared, especially in the northwest section bounded by Roosevelt and Prince. Most food courts have reopened (alas, my favorite in the basement of the Hong Kong Supermarket remains dark). But perhaps most important, there seem to be twice the number of stalls and storefronts selling snacky street eats than there were before.
