Lotus of Siam, my favorite restaurant in the world (at the moment), is opening a second location in New York City.
New York can also look forward to crispy rice with sour Thai sausage.
That’s one of their dishes that I’m personally fond of, but not everyone has a taste for it.
In other news, the Russians are actually cracking down on spammers. Lo, surely the Apocalypse is upon us!
(Additional sign: I noticed the other day that the Joe’s Crab Shack at 183 and Duval was closed. Not that I was a big fan of Joe’s Crab Shack (I wasn’t) but how often have you seen one close?)
This can prove useful information to know. 24 5th is only a seven block walk from The Strand.
A seven block walk is enough to work up a good appetite. And having shopped at The Strand, you’ll almost certainly have something worth reading over dinner.
