//The line

A personal Chinatown-mornings blog (ywong.com) describes visiting Kong Kee Food Corp near opening and finding "older ladies" already there buying breakfast noodles to go, part of what the writer calls the neighborhood's morning rush when "the real life and energy of Manhattan Chinatown starts early."

The same source notes specialty items sell out by late afternoon (around 4:30-5pm), so demand front-loads into the morning rather than producing an all-day line — the blogger calls it one of their favorite fresh-food shops after visiting for roughly a decade.
