The Best Restaurant (in Queens, in NY, in the USA?)
Ranked #18,271 in Food & Cooking, #324,767 overall
Sripraphai isn't a restaurant. It's a way of thinking, a claim on the great, not the average, the remarkable, not the status quo. So special, it deserves its own lens.
Menu Highlights (courtesy of Chowhound and others)
- First things first: don't be safe. Order stuff you've never had before.
- Order food spicy. Really. It's worth it.
- Here are a few dishes to try: Catfish Salad, Watercress Salad, Drunken Noodles, Chu-chee Talapia
- I want to reiterate something: order the Watercress Salad.
- Stand up and get dessert from the rack near the cash register. Get the banana leaf rice thing. And the green cubes with white stripes. Definitely.
- Also, be SURE to order the coconut sorbet with sticky rice for dessert.
Not just the best thai restaurant, but an extraordinary experience
- How to get there
- A google map. You'll get lost the first time, it's okay.
- The New York Times review
- 2 stars. For a little storefront in Queens. Go figure.
