Upstairs at the downstairs Golden Mall.<\/p>\n

Folks who are new to Flushing\u2019s OG Golden Shopping Mall at 41-28 Main St often just head downstairs (the former digs of Xi\u2019an Famous Foods) to prowl the labyrinthine basement and enjoy the wares of a handful of vendors including the everything-is-delicious-here Tian Jin Dumpling House. Sometimes, however, they neglect the street level merchants; here\u2019s an example of what you\u2019ll find there from Tian Jin Meat Pie, \u5929\u6d25\u9921\u9905.
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nTop right, a hefty bing (\u9905, Chinese wheat-flour pancake or pie) stuffed with delicious savory ground lamb; on the left, a chive, egg, and vermicelli somewhat thinner, floppier bing; and a folded scallion pancake for support. Unlike the fried scallion pancakes you typically find in a menu\u2019s appetizer section, this doughy, steamed beauty is perfect for filling with whatever treats you find appropriate, perhaps from the bins there or elsewhere in Golden Mall. Or do as I do, buy some to warm up and experiment with at home.

\n[1] Chive, egg, and vermicelli bings at the ready.
\n[2] Lamb bings in front being upstaged by the yellow conical items on the left and to the rear: Chinese cornbread. Yes, it\u2019s a thing.

\n[1] One of the aforementioned bins…
\n[2] …and another.
\n[3] Look for this sign just to the left of the Golden Shopping Mall entrance.
