Flock to this corner store bakery for the signature bánh bò nướng, the heavenly, bright green sticky pandan honeycomb cake topped with pandan custard. OMG!

This Cantonese noodle spot is known for its beef and pork specialties. You can pick up the juiciest pork dumplings for $15. Don’t be put off by the long line on weekends. It’s worth it.

56 Henry is the emotionally charged anchor of Henry Street’s art community. Openings are like a block party. The exhibitions, sharp, funny, and sometimes devastating, capture the messy, confessional texture of creative life right now.

A big-hearted, storefront gallery where locals linger on the benches outside and rising artists explore imagined realms inside.
