Restaurants - Long Island, NY (Jericho)

Green Melody is a superb Vegetarian Chinese place locate at 519 North Broadway (just north of the L.I.E.) in Jericho. I ate here 5 times in a week since my hotel was 2 miles away and I have to say that I was impressed by EVERYTHING I ate. They have TONS of items, from great Appetizers to incredibly diverse and unique Specials and Entrees. My favorite Appetizers were Barbeque Veggie Duck, Pan Fried Veggie Dumplings (with Veggie Chicken in them), Veggie Chicken Rolls, Barbeque Veggie Beef and Protein Nuggets Sticks, Latkes (fried vegan mashed potatoes), and Moo Shu Rolls. However, they have many more Appetizers that I did not try. Their Wonton Soup was excellent. The Entrees I tried were the General Tso's Veggie Chicken, Veggie Chicken with Cashews, and Veggie Sesame Beef; all of which were absolutely incredible. I did not even touch their Specials, of which there are about 30 of them, but the one I still want to try at some point is "Steak and Veggie Medley"; Grilled Vegetarian Steaks, served with Red Bell Peppers, Sweet Peas, Fresh Mushrooms, Acorn Squash, and Potato Slices in a tangy dark sauce, topped with Broccoli Rabe. Man, this place is awesome!!!!!
