It's still there. It was closed almost over a year, yung management/owner also runs Wai Ying and Ying ying...

[K.I.L.L.]

huh? closed na ba Ang Tunay? parang open pa when I passed by the other day ah.

yung Golden Fortune sa tabi ng Peace Hotel masarap din hehe

I went there a couple of months ago. Their sign is still there but if you go in, it's closed. My Binondo-based friends told me they closed. I hope they do re-open. I really liked their food before.

Ang Tunay Beef Centre has been closed for some time already and aren't Wai Ying and Ying Ying the same restaurant? Manosa opened Maki Centre close to the corner of Salazar and Benavidez. I think the original Tasty restaurant was the one on Masangkay street. I do find the Retiro and Ongpin branches more convenient though.
.

Tunay Beef is very much open, It underwent some renovations though. I work just across them. Wai Ying has two shops in Benavidex, near Salazar and another in front of Hope Christian. Ying ying is at the corner of Nueva and Dasmarinas. Wai Ying, Ying Ying and President are operated by the same owner. New Manosa is along Onpin near corner Alonso also still open. And Tasty used to have a shop in Nueva, then moved to Ongpin beside Binondo Church. It is now located at along Condesa Street.

Tunay Beef is very much open, never closed ever. I work just across them. Wai Ying has two shops in Benavidex, near Salazar and another in front of Hope Christian.

Pagpunta sa Binondo ay consider na trip kasi sa traffic at bagal nang sasakyan doon.

Masuki was originally Ma Kong, the first restaurant of the Ma family on Benavidez street. Ma Mon Luk is a different restaurant but offered a very similar product. Local Chinese legend has it that the guy who owned both gave Ma Kong to the original wife and Ma Mon Luk to the mistress. They have branches now at MOA and Megamall.

Buhay pa ang Ang Tunay.

Ahh.. Chinatown. I really miss that place. When I was younger, I was there alone around twice or thrice a week for several years (I was still in high school then during the late 80's) doing errands. I remember the times when I would occasionally stop by the magazine stands and sneak a peek at Lao Fu Zi comics. :D And how about those side-street chess players who bets on passers-by to figure out how to arrive on a checkmate in 5 moves?

I got robbed once and almost mugged on another occasion. Regardless of it all, the place has a soft spot in my heart and this thread kinda made me want to walk down memory lane one of these days... and maybe grab some real Chinese grocery items while I'm at it.

The last time I was there was at least a decade ago and I wasn't even on Ongpin. I was looking for electronics stuff along Raon.

Sorry for the OT.

lao fu zi?! old master Q?! sobrang kulit niyan bro! lalo na yung pandak na mataba pati yung matangkad na payat na kasama ni lao fu zi. i miss that comic! so fun to read and re-read. never fails to make me laugh and put a silly smile on my ugly face. i remember my mom warning me to start the comic from right to left for this is how chinese people read.
as a kid i tend to forget things so when i read it , it just got me perplexed!

also a decade ago you would often catch the late "palito" in ronquillo street. he plays the drums in a casino nearby.

yung Ramon Lee fried chicken sa Sta. Cruz masarap.

[champoy]

Yung new manosa yan ba yung panciteria manosa nung 1980s? Same location pa ba pero different name na?

Grabe miss ko na eto...

Daming tambay sa labas. Bilihan ng mga items ng mga snatchers...May bantay na baboy damo sa pintuan ng restaurant.

Original Tasty Condesa beside Binondo Church. New Manosa, home of the original Maki. Cosmos Soler, best asodo anywhere. Ling Nam, Sincerity. Uno, Tunay beef, Wai Ying, Ying Ying....

kaya ako madalas sa binondo gawa ng mga hayop ng wah sun. pag galing sa mga hayop sa aranque, susulyap
ako diyan.
yung nasa pinto mga vietnamese pot bellied pig yun and not baboy ramo.
nakita ko yun nung maliliit pa sila. kukyut!
yung mañosa di ako nasasarapan diyan kahit noon pa man. asar na asar ako pag kumakain diyan. masarap pa sa delicious. nagka manosa dito sa banawe nagsara rin agad. ang kulit pa nung aunty ko na balikbayan, sabi ko di masarap diyan. kumain kami ng crispy pata parang wood carving sa tigas! luma na!

Buhay pa ba estero? sarap dyan. Nung college days ko dinadayo namin diyan!

baboy nga lang dahil yung mga kanin baboy na isang drum katabi mismo ng mga malinis na kubyertos.

delicious kitchenette, kim hiong

Ang lai lai alam ko sarado na.

masarap nga riyan sa delicious bro.
yang lai lai dapat nga diyan magsara na, kawawa naman lai lai na eh.

mag snack muna kayo sa globe lumpia house sa raon. yameee!

[crazy_boy]

usually take out lang ako from Delicious. nakakatakot din yung area pag gabi na hehe

[Retz]

daan din kayo sa 168 foodcourt. masasarap din mga pagkain dun... meron silang mga authentic chinese dish like sa kim hong.

last month kumain kami ni room mate... ang daming pusa sa ilalim nang lamesa kase daming pagkain na mumo sa lapag... hindi nakain yung inorder namin.

take out tuloy.

[badkuk]

i seldom get to eat there na. Usually dumadaan na lang ng Shin Ton Yon, Wai Ying for their asado, siopao, sausage, pork floss

Daan din kayo Bee Tin grocery for some Chinese delicacies: kiamoy, dikiam, sungsung peanuts, that sort of stuff

If you guys can hang out in Chinatown til 8-8:30, nagsesale yung Maxim's Tea House dun.

Not that the place needs more advertising, but your friend may like Eng Bee Tin...although some Tsinoys still prefer the old school Ho-Land hopia along Nueva.
