Siestema, the food critic must live in Brooklyn or Queens for all the love he shows us!! Of the Brooklyn spots that are included, one is my local neighborhood fave, Mryrtle Thai! Here's what he had to say about it: "Brooklyn has no shortage of glitzy cocktail-driven Thai spots. Yet none can match MYRTLE THAI, where the larbs are every bit as good as Sripraphai's, and fish sauce flows like ketchup at a Greek diner." I eat at Myrtle Thai at least once a week, so I second his opinion. Here are other Brooklyn spots on the list (I'll leave it to a Queens dweller to post those!) Have any of tried these?
