I've heard good things about Sweet-n-Tart, a nice Chinatown Cantonese spot with dim-sum type items. I tried it out with a friend last week, and thought it was pretty good.
We had some standard dim-sum type dumplings, along with a slightly unusual shrimp & asparagus dumpling. We also ordered chicken and clam congee, a strange combination that worked better than expected. Also, we had a beef noodle soup. The beef flavor was unexceptional, but we liked the noodles.
All in all, a nice meal, and it wasn't too expensive (although it was expensive by Chinatown standards). Nothing was greasy, and everything tasted fresh. I'd go back, especially since there aren't that many good Cantonese places around New York.
