Kwik Meal on 46th and 6th ave.

None of the other stuff on that thread is street food, dude.

"the real food of the uk streets" - by simon reynolds, on sale at barnes & nobles everywheres.

I'm more curious about river food to be honest.

DEAR DAVID O. SELZNICK, WHAT ARE YOUR FAVORITE THAI AND VIETNAMESE RESTAURANTS IN N00 YORK & ALSO WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THE CAMBODIAN PLACE NEAR BAM?

― kanye twitty (Jody Beth Rosen), Wednesday, 15 February 2006 20:36 (nineteen years ago)

not sance delzer but i like da cambodian place. depends on what you get tho.

― hstencil (hstencil), Wednesday, 15 February 2006 20:37 (nineteen years ago)

I DON'T THINK I'VE EVER HAD CAMBODIAN FOOD.
WHAT IS TEH GIST?

― senseiDancer (sexyDancer), Wednesday, 15 February 2006 20:41 (nineteen years ago)

uh, it's asian.

― hstencil (hstencil), Wednesday, 15 February 2006 20:43 (nineteen years ago)

YOU MEAN LIKE RUSSIAN FOOD?

― senseiDancer (sexyDancer), Wednesday, 15 February 2006 20:46 (nineteen years ago)

no not eurasian!!!! haha roffles.

― hstencil (hstencil), Wednesday, 15 February 2006 20:48 (nineteen years ago)

it's pretty similar to vietnamese food! vermicelli soups, etc.

― kanye twitty (Jody Beth Rosen), Wednesday, 15 February 2006 20:49 (nineteen years ago)

meat heavy?

― senseiDancer (sexyDancer), Wednesday, 15 February 2006 20:51 (nineteen years ago)

meat and fish, yeah.

― kanye twitty (Jody Beth Rosen), Wednesday, 15 February 2006 20:55 (nineteen years ago)

The Gist is Stuart Moxham's post-Young Marble Giants band, you should know that, you burned me the CD.

HA HA.

Cambodian is like a cross between thai and vietnamese. I used to kinda like it, I like how they have 1,000,000 things on the menu, and how they have a note saying "if you're in a rush to see a movie, can we suggest the following 3 entrees?" Why? Because they're so damn slow. Seriously the worst service ever. Dare to sit in the porched in area...

Really good thai, well I've only been to Sri Pa Pa or whatever once, the super place in queens that everyone talks about, that was pretty amazing. I used to love the park slope place near 2nd st on the 2nd floor. I like Tuk Tuk in my hood. Really good basil fried rice, hot-pot dumplings (peanuts and radish) are super.

― Dan Selzer (Dan Selzer), Wednesday, 15 February 2006 21:05 (nineteen years ago)

What do you think of Green Bo, the Shanghai dumpling house in Chinatown?

sexy gave me gist too!

― cutty (mcutt), Wednesday, 15 February 2006 21:27 (nineteen years ago)

I've never been to New Green Bo. I've been to very little in chinatown.

And I've never had a vietnamese sandwhich, though a new place just opened up at smith and bergen near me. I'm excited to try.

― Dan Selzer (Dan Selzer), Wednesday, 15 February 2006 21:27 (nineteen years ago)

don't know Green Bo, but there is an excellent dumpling house called the Excellent Dumpling House

― midi sanskrit (sanskrit), Wednesday, 15 February 2006 21:28 (nineteen years ago)

I used to eat this bbq pork sandwhich on french bread every week at the pho place where I used to live in dallas. one of the all time great sandwiches of my life

― Dominique (dleone), Wednesday, 15 February 2006 21:29 (nineteen years ago)

theres a great pho place on the bowery called pho tu do. soups featuring massive bulk of things you cannot identify and dont care.

delightfully cheap

whoa, banh mi within walking distance of my neighborhood? greatest news i've heard all day (and i did hear some good news earlier).

― kanye twitty (Jody Beth Rosen), Wednesday, 15 February 2006 21:49 (nineteen years ago)

banh mi place on broome and elizabeth is great.

new green bo is okay, but their steamed juicy buns are a bit heavy on the sesame oil for my taste. try the fried pork, though, they are my faves.

― Special Agent Gene Krupa (orion), Wednesday, 15 February 2006 22:01 (nineteen years ago)

IJ,

We had the Shanghai Crab and the pork dumplings (as well as the scallion pancakes). Not bad. There's a place in SF that makes the best Shanghai dumplings but the price is seriously out of control.

Where is best fish & chips in my part of brooklyn (roughly)?

Is there really anywhere besides the Chip Shop on 5th or those funky fried chicken places?

― Special Agent Gene Krupa (orion), Wednesday, 15 February 2006 22:14 (nineteen years ago)

what does bumming mean in the UK? Is it something to do with my fanny pack? Do I have to take the lift to the lou? What colour is it anyway?

I'm not a big fish eater either. Does that mean something funny in england? I think there's a new fish place on 5th ave though.

― Dan Selzer (Dan Selzer), Wednesday, 15 February 2006 22:17 (nineteen years ago)

Dan,

Do you think that Tomoe is overrated? What about the bathrooms at Bar 89? What about Ham Gee OK on 32nd?

"The Lou" is Louisville, KY.

I think you mean the loo.

chip shop prolly closest place to where you is, ian. their chip butties are pretty good for such a disgusting food item!

AT SOME POINT THIS WEEKEND I AM GOING TO ZAYTOON'S ON VANDERBILT. ANTICIPATING NOM NOM

― Laurel, Thursday, 1 November 2007 20:54 (eighteen years ago)

it's very good (and delivers to franklin fuck yes!) but it possibly gave ian and i food poisoning last time we ate it.

― bell_labs, Thursday, 1 November 2007 21:01 (eighteen years ago)

xpost to morbs -- I kinda like Cronin & Phelan (fish & chips, Irish pub grub). 38th and Broadway. not a whole lot around there. Cup Diner is nearby (35st & 36av) but it kinda sucks imo.

it's very good (and delivers to franklin fuck yes!) but it possibly gave ian and i food poisoning last time we ate it.

wow really? me and shannon too. and check out sanskrit's comment upthread. gotta be more than a coincidence.

― dmr, Thursday, 1 November 2007 21:02 (eighteen years ago)

You guys, that is so depressing.

― Laurel, Thursday, 1 November 2007 21:08 (eighteen years ago)

sorry :(

if it makes you feel better I've had it four times but only got semi-ill once

― dmr, Thursday, 1 November 2007 21:10 (eighteen years ago)

try your luck

― dmr, Thursday, 1 November 2007 21:10 (eighteen years ago)

yeah, the other time i had it, i was fine. and i used to eat smith st zaytoons on a weekly basis when i lived over there and never had a problem.

― bell_labs, Thursday, 1 November 2007 21:11 (eighteen years ago)

i WILL eat it again. though i may avoid ground lamb stuff.

― bell_labs, Thursday, 1 November 2007 21:17 (eighteen years ago)

that is the same dish me & shannon split

― dmr, Thursday, 1 November 2007 21:19 (eighteen years ago)

ground lamb platter

― dmr, Thursday, 1 November 2007 21:19 (eighteen years ago)

it was tasty :(

― dmr, Thursday, 1 November 2007 21:19 (eighteen years ago)

25% chance of spending a night in stomach hell... I LIKE THOSE ODDS

― Jon Lewis, Thursday, 1 November 2007 21:20 (eighteen years ago)

I've eaten smith st. zaytoons so much that one of the guys who used to work there bought me a drink at Boat once. That was weird. Anyway, it never made me sick, though when I got the chicken kebab platter for delivery it was sometimes undercooked. That's pretty gross. Their lentil soup is AWESOME, so thick you can eat it with a fork.

The Cup sucks, but Cafe Bar has some ok stuff.

― dan selzer, Thursday, 1 November 2007 21:29 (eighteen years ago)

yeah we went two weekends ago for schwarma brunch. really good. i've forgiven them for my smith st food poisoning of years ago. this place is much better than olive vine.

― sanskrit, Thursday, 1 November 2007 21:30 (eighteen years ago)

this place is much better than olive vine.

^^^ OTM x1000

― ian, Thursday, 1 November 2007 21:34 (eighteen years ago)

Yes. The Olive Vine on 6th ave or whereve is the WORST. The place on Dekalb is pretty good for some things, as is Beduin Tent on Atlantic, who make this insane Merguez.

― dan selzer, Thursday, 1 November 2007 23:57 (eighteen years ago)

where does one eat near Lorimer/Metrop at 9 on a Sat night that isn't crowded, or the Kellogg Diner?

― Dr Morbius, Friday, 2 November 2007 15:00 (eighteen years ago)

although we did go to Chicha in Bushwick and C.lo Cafe in east williamsburg last week and despite the former's beautiful design and more innovative/interesting menu, found C.lo Cafe shockingly delicious for what seems like a pretty humble under the radar place. Don't sleep.

Now can we talk about Queens please?

I just re-read this entire thread. I am sad my only contribution was to bitch about accidentally getting mashed potatos on my pizza. A higher end sushi joint opened up kind of near my place. It's getting good reviews and I need to overcome my hesitations about sushi chefs who are not asian. https://www.gaijinny.com/

― Yerac, Thursday, 19 July 2018 16:44 (seven years ago)

I dunno about paying those prices in Astoria too. But I guess I pay a lot for good grilled octopus there.
