- Jackson Heights - Continuing our gastronomic journey in Queens, we’ll traverse Roosevelt Avenue, which becomes a bustling marketplace of street vendors representing various Latin American countries on weekends. To indulge our craving for sweets, we’ll stop by an Argentine bakery for some authentic confections and pause for a “cholado,” a unique Colombian concoction that’s part icy dessert, part fruit salad. Our adventure concludes at a cozy bodega established by a Veracruz native, where we’ll celebrate with a (shrimp) cocktail. This final destination is situated at the crossroads of Jackson Heights and Elmhurst, two neighborhoods rich in immigrant culture and cuisine. They offer a glimpse into the extensive culinary treasures of Queens, hinting at the vast array of flavors we’ve yet to discover in our half-day exploration.

Corona is the culinary epicenter of New York’s Latin American community, a place where you can find regional specialties ranging all the way from the Tierra del Fuego up to Mexico’s northern border with the United States. On this tour of Corona’s culinary essentials, we hit the streets on a Saturday, when the griddles and grills in this already lively neighborhood are working overtime and the street vendors come out in full force. Starting at Corona Plaza, we will drop by a family-run Mexican bakery for sweet breakfast pastries. From there, we’ll continue to an out-of-the-way spot where we’ll sit down with neighborhood families to enjoy a hearty Mexican-style brunch of pit-roasted goat. We will continue along Roosevelt Avenue, stopping by street vendors, an Argentinean bakery and make a stop for a “cholado”. We’ll end our day at a small bodega. This last stop leaves us at the edge of Jackson Heights and Elmhurst, having tried what makes Queens such a culinary Promised Land.
