Best Asian (non-Chinese) restaurants in NYC’s Chinatown

by Louie D

As a follow up to my previous post regarding the best Chinese restaurants in New York City’s Chinatown, I would like say that NYC Chinatown has many authentic Asian restaurants in addition to traditional Chinese food. If you are in NYC Chinatown and don’t want to have Chinese food, I recommend the list of restaurants as excellent alternatives. Like the Chinese restaurants, these Asian restaurants in NYC Chinatown offer authentic flavor for a very economical price. I wish you enjoy these restaurants and provide us some feedback.

Nyonya – Located on Grand Street on the border of NYC’s Chinatown and Little Italy, Nyonya is the best Malysian restaurant in NYC’s Chinatown. My favorite and one of their signature dishes is the sizzling tofu. Nyonya’s curries are also good options. Getting the Roti Telur (Indian pancake with curry dipping sauce) as an appetizer is highly recommended. Nyonya also has locations in Brooklyn if you want to venture out to the outerboro.

Pongsri Thai Restaurant – There are actually several Ponsgri Thai restaurants in NYC (Chelsea, Uptown and Chinatown). My personal favorite is the one in Chinatown, located on the corner of Baxter and Bayard Street. Pongsri offer great traditional Thai curry dishes and is the oldest Thai restaurant in NYC’s Chinatown. Pongsri also offer great lunch menus such as curry, Pad Thai, and other noodle dishes.

Nha Trang or Pho Pasteur or Thai Son – There are three Vietnamese restaurants located right next to each other on Baxter Street (between Canal and Bayard). All three restaurants serve authentic Vietnamese food. Although these three restaurants aren’t as good as the Vietnamese restaurants in San Jose, CA, they are the next best thing in New York City.

Below is a map showing the locations of the restaurants. Hope you enjoyed this review and visit these NYC Chinatown eateries!

Visit Atlantic Fish Company when in Boston

by Louie D

Atlantic Fish Company is, hands down, the best restaurant in Boston’s Back Bay. I highly recommend you visit for dinner, after you’ve taken John’s advice to have brunch at the Paramount.

Located on Boyleston Street, Atlantic Fish Company offers fresh fish and seafood daily. According to the staff, fishes are flown in every morning by 11am. Atlantic Fish Company is also flexible with all of its preparation – you can have your fish steamed, seared or fried. Seared Chilean sea bass is my personal favorite there. Each seafood entree is in the $35 to $45 range. The most expensive is their surf and turf, at $45, but you get a peace of steak and a sizable lobster tail.

Atlantic Fish’s soups are also great; I personally prefer the crab bisque over the traditional clam chowder, but they’re both very good.  Their wine selection is great, with many Pinot Noirs from California’s Central Valley that complement the seafood dishes. Service and ambiance is also excellent. I give Atlantic Fish Company five stars and I don’t hand those out lightly.

You may also want to check out The Paramount (John M’s previous post) when you’re in the area.
