Part of the city's favorite Chinese-restaurant minichain, Hon's flagship Chinatown branch is suffused with inviting cooking smells and clamorously noisy diners. The giant, 300-plus menu ranges from satisfying dim sum brunches to steaming wonton soups, bobbing with juicy dumplings. For something different, try the congee rice porridge, a fancy-free soul-food dish that takes three hours to prepare and comes in seafood, chicken and beef varieties.
