Oneness-Fountain-Heart Restaurant 157-19 72nd Avenue (between Parsons Boulevard and Aguilar Avenue) Kew Gardens Hills, Queens 718-591-3663 Vegiboys Rating (3/4) Kew Gardens Hills holds little of interest to the NYC tourist, and its distance from mass transit (the closest trains are the 7, E, and F – all fall well outside the neighborhood) may dissuade even […]
