'Green Plantains' of Jackson Heights

Joe DiStefano of The Gothamist checked out Jackson Heights' newest Chino Latino restaurant: Green Plantains.

Green Plantains bills itself as a “Nuevo Chino Latino Dining Experience.” Edward Ng, who helped craft the menu for acclaimed Bronx Chino-Latino eatery Sabrosura, also had a hand in the menu of this two-week old Roosevelt Avenue eatery. Ng grew up in the Dominican Republic and the food at Green Plantains reflects his heritage, with such dishes as ropa vieja and chicharron de pollo.
Nuevo Chino Latino is perfect food for today's Queens, no?
