Rolling NYC Food Snob 'The Yelp Of ILX' Kill Yourself Thread

i love the look of that place but i heard it moved (off of coney island ave by the black sea bookstore)

speaking of brighton beach have yall been to the former movie theater/current russian fancy grocery store? it's not as good as brighton beach bazaar but it is a cool scene

gourmanoff it's called

yo fuku is trash, i've had better chicken sandwiches at rally's

that's what i've been hearing??

super salty, v little flavor. mushy frozen steak wedge fries covered in seasoned salt were honestly kinda perplexing.

as someone who enjoys mission chinese i'm not entirely against the concept but i'm struggling to see what new ideas they're bringing to the table

Has anybody been to decoy? i'm intringued

M. Wells steakhouse recently for my birthday, actually second trip. I love it overall, but weirdly the steak we got was the least exciting thing - NY Strip, which they char on the outside no matter how you ask for it done and oversalt. Best things were actually the fresh oysters, which had some kind of an apple-chive topping, and the trout, which comes fresh from their tank and is served whole.

Generally really love what they do, both at the Steakhouse and at the little joint at PS1.

IA @ that

article is dumb too, basically sounds like any restaurant that isn't brand new/cutting-edge falls into the author's definition. E.g. in my old neighborhood he includes both a cheap Polish diner and a good but standard-issue French bistro.

white bear in flushing is sort of amazingly mediocre but im happy white people have been tricked into thinking its good

my theory is when white ppl see the wontons come out splashed in red oil they feel scared but since its not actually spicy at all white ppl feel proud of themselves for being able to eat soemthing that looks spicy

I guess I'm here through the holidays... any recommendations as to what's open on Thanksgiving?

(Under normal circumstances, I'd go to 69 Bayard as xx-posted above but belated RIP)

haven't been to any of the above. if you're looking for something in chinatown i'd try uncle lou's.

Yah, I'm not much of a holiday food fan so I figured I'd just walk around Chinatown and see what was open. Thanks for the Uncle Lou's tip.
