Has anybody been to Congee Village? Any recommendations, good non-congee items, etc?
We had lunch at Bo: better and expecting a new menu soon. The only Korean restaurant to have home cooking. The beef ribs seem like Jewish potted ribs. Going back for more tomorrow.
So far, my favorite chicken sate is at Nyonya, on Grand St. accross from Ferrara's of all places. (I don't care as much for their beef sate though.) It is juicy, smokey, and fragrant, and the s...

I'm going to SE Asia next week (destination Thailand) and have heard that wonderful chow is sold by street vendors. Is it generally safe to sample food from these sources? My trip will be very ph...

Who serves up the best Guinness pint in town? I've heard Paddy O'Reilly's (on 2nd? 3rd?) is a contender. (Guinness, while not strictly a food item, is touted as a meal. But . . .should we have ...
