Whether you’re seeking the nostalgia of family-style dining from your childhood or stumbling into the only thing open restaurant this Sunday, we hope this list helps with your “Jewish Christmas” feast, for those who make this an annual pilgrimage.

We’ve chosen a sampling of the most local, “no frills” take-out spots but since our neighborhood doesn’t have much critically acclaimed Chinese fair, we listed some favorites in Sunset Park and Bensonhurst — where you can enjoy a family-style meal and sample less predictable dishes. We think that for good Christmas Day Chinese food, it’s well worth the trip.

Of course, this year, Jews will be able to slurp wonton soup and munch General Tso’s Chicken in front of the Chanukah candles since the Festival of Lights begins on December 24.

Wish you all a wonderful holiday filled with dumplings, general tsos, noodle soup, and only positive predictions on your fortune cookies.

**Flatbush / Ditmas Park / Midwood**

**Where:** 402 Church Avenue between East 4th and East 5th Street  
**Phone:** 718-871-0635  
This place replaced Yen Yen, reviewers love their hibachi. Slightly higher prices than other chinese food spots, but nice atmosphere and the menu includes sushi options.

**Sunset Park:** Spoiler alert — these next few places aren’t an easy walk away, but they’re some staples of Brooklyn’s Chinatown dining scene.

**Where:** 813 55th Street at 8th Avenue  
**Phone:** 718-871-2880  
Reach past your culinary comfort zone with favorites like crispy pig with jellyfish or classics like soup dumplings. A favorite dim sum & Cantonese restaurants in a banquet-style palace with bustling crowds.

**Where:** 4801 8th Avenue at 48th Street  
**Phone:** 718-437-3542  
An amazing spot for expertly pan-fried, thin-wrapper dumplings for only $1–$2\. For a deeper fry, try spring rolls, sesame pancakes, and heaping bowls of noodle soup. Pork & Chive is a classic dumpling choice, but if you’re willing to wait an extra 5 minutes (and pay an extra couple bucks) try the steamed chicken & mushroom.

**Where:** 5121 8th Avenue at 52nd Street.
