Signage alert: Nan Xiang Xiao Long Bao on St. Mark's Place

ICYMI: Nan Xiang Xiao Long Bao is opening an outpost at 15 St. Mark's Place between Second Avenue and Third Avenue. 

The Michelin-recommended soup-dumpling specialists first opened in Flushing in 2006... and later expanded with restaurants in Koreatown as well as in New Jersey and Long Island. You can check out their menu here. 

Nan Xiang Xiao Long Bao takes over the space from April 2023 casualty Boxed To-Go (or BT), which offered bento boxes. 

The address also provided a brief but memorable stint in EV musical history from 1995-1999 as Coney Island High.

    More famous than Coney Island High, this space was also BOY BAR, the legendary gay bar and drag club, in the ‘80s and early ‘90s!
