The Infatuation advises arriving 'around noon' and to 'line up on the sidewalk with 30 other New Yorkers' for Wah Fung's under-$10 soy sauce chicken and roast duck over rice, noting the small shop runs on a first-come basis.

The guide frames the crowd as demand-driven rather than hype-driven, writing that 'a line isn't always the product of social media hype' — here it's simply what happens when a place serves such affordable, high-quality food.
