Sripraphai is everyone’s favorite Thai restaurant, and why wouldn’t it be? Everything on its menu is good, authentic and inexpensive. Of course, it’s also not as easily accessible since it’s in Woodside, Queens. But then again, for those who are wiling to travel, it’s a quick ride on the 7 train. The duck green curry blows me away. It’s spicy, and beware of the peppers in the curry: I once accidentally ate one and couldn’t eat the rest of the meal because it burned my tongue. But I thrive on experiences like that. There is also pineapple and tomato along with the duck, which has the right amount of skin and fat as well as meat. This is the one dish of which I always order an extra portion to bring home with me.

“Pan” in Japanese means “bread,” taken from the French word for bread. Curry pan is a staple in Japanese bakeries. At Panya, there are two types of curry pan: spicy and regular. While I love spice, the spicy version is almost too much for a breakfast roll. But the regular version has just the right amount of kick to start the day right.
