I don't get the pizza thing. I've been living in NYC since I was 14, and sure, there's okay pizza. But I must be spoiled because it's never blown my mind. It's pizza. Someone explain?

I wish I'd had Indian food at JSq when I lived convenient to there, but it wasn't something I had tried up to that point. Silly grul.

is there good indian food in bk?
― corrie ham (roxymuzak), Friday, 31 October 2008 14:14 (fifteen years ago) link
bk isn't known for it the way queens is. the places i've been to (in brooklyn heights, cobble hill, park slope, greenpoint, williamsburg) haven't been great, but that's a very tiny area of the borough.
in the city, tiffin wallah on 28th street is my favorite by far. (well, there's also devi but it's $$$$$.)
― lauren, Friday, 31 October 2008 14:22 (fifteen years ago) link
do u hav a fav of the 6th street plces
― 888 (ice crӕm), Friday, 31 October 2008 14:25 (fifteen years ago) link
Rox, I'm very fond of a place called Joy Indian on Flatbush Ave around Bergen St or there-ish. In particular I love their korma sauce, it has a golden richness and is thick in a way that makes me think there are actually cashews and stuff in it.
― Vampire romances depend on me (Laurel), Friday, 31 October 2008 14:28 (fifteen years ago) link
whats the area thats like less than a city block but some ppl call it little india
xpost that sounds awesome laurel
― corrie ham (roxymuzak), Friday, 31 October 2008 14:29 (fifteen years ago) link
o man i used to gorge on that very korma all the time before i curtailed my delivery habit xp
― 888 (ice crӕm), Friday, 31 October 2008 14:30 (fifteen years ago) link
there is plenty of good pizza here (wisconsin), but sometimes you do have to try to find it.
― Jordan, Friday, 31 October 2008 14:31 (fifteen years ago) link
it's been years at this point since i ate at any of the 6th st places, so my advice probably isn't worth much. banjara and brick lane were much, much better than the rest and also quite a bit more expensive than the others. the latter specializes in "anglo-indian."
― lauren, Friday, 31 October 2008 14:32 (fifteen years ago) link
Yeah, I have all these awesome recipes for korma and they all require about eleventy hundred different spices and ground cashews and fancy stuff...Joy is the only place where I suspect they may be using the same recipes.

6th st between 1st n 2nd
― 888 (ice crӕm), Friday, 31 October 2008 14:32 (fifteen years ago) link
6th street is probably "little india." there are better restaurants and many more shops in curry hill, which centers around lexington ave from roughly east 24-30th streets.

I've never stayed in a New York hotel. My parents once rented a room with its own kitchen in a B&B on the UWS. The room was large and comfortable and pretty and the view was amazing and they loved it, but while not extravagantly priced for a whole suite, it's still not exactly an affordable crash pad.

Normally they crash w me and I sleep on the couch lol

yes i like bar b q. i used to live around the corner and ate there a lot. you can get a ton of food really cheap. the smoked hot wings are A-MAZING. i like the pork, doused in the vinegar sauce. it was often crowded and/or playing bad music. but one time the chef talked to me & my friend about the Feederz.
― ian, Friday, 31 October 2008 14:48 (fifteen years ago) link
it looks like bar b q closed over the summer and re-opened as a bar & grill?
