Now these are not the kind of meatballs you'll find on top of spaghetti. Chef Yong & Wanting's Chinese-style pork meatballs have been slow-braised to maximize flavor and tenderness in every bite, then are topped with fresh scallions for a pop of freshness. Pair with steamed rice, lo mein noodles, or your favorite veggies for an easy dinner that tastes like you were cooking all day!

About Yong Zhao & Wanting Zhang

chef image

We grew up in Northern China, met in college in Beijing and came to Yale for graduate school. Sharing a common love for the food we grew up with, we missed eating authentic and healthy Northern Chinese food every day. We loved the diverse flavors of our home so much that we opened the first Junzi Kitchen in New Haven to share our favorite dishes with our classmates and community in 2015. Since then Junzi Kitchen has been an institution beloved by Chinese and non-Chinese diners alike, and we opened in NYC as one of the highest reviewed Chinese restaurants.

Thanks to the Cook Unity platform, we are able to share those healthy and delicious traditional recipes with you, we can’t wait for you to enjoy!
