“[Chuan Tian Xia](https://www.google.com/maps/place/chuan+tian+xia/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x89c2450afa660caf:0x2f36793d4574fdf5?sa=X&ved=1t:242&ictx=111) in Sunset Park is pretty legit, though I'd say their noodles are more silky than toothsome.”

replying to u/CabassoG: Chinese- Szechuan Mountain House, Peppercorn Station, Uluh (all Szechuan/Sichuan,) Blue Willow, I guess, for Hunan food, though there's probably a place in Flushing/Brooklyn I am forgetting about. Chongqing Lao Zao for hot pot. Thai- Saranrom, Hungry Thirsty, Hug Esan, Zabb PuTawn (all Isan/Northeastern Thai) Indian- Indian Table (Goan.) Rowdy Rooster on W32nd for spicier chicken sandwiches, though they have notably got rid of their spiciest offerings Sri Lankan- Sigri, though I haven't tried Lungi
“Adding to the Chinese recs: Chuan Tian Xia, Little Pepper, Xu Chu, Young and Rich.”

replying to u/rumfortheborder: Chuan Tian Xia is amazing Thanh Da 2 or little thanh da on 56th and 8th is the best banh mi (get the roast pork one) by far kai feng fu for fried dumplings yozi for scallion oil noodles and their weird pot sticker dumplings park asia for dim sum wong wong noodle for hand pulled noodle soups Tacos el bronco is fine but not excellent, please don't let that color your experience of mexican food in the neighborhood antojitos mexicanos is amazing, has a sit down place two blocks away, get the quesadillas, molotes, sopes, huaraches, or cemitas. tinga is amazing. milanesa is great. la guadelupe has some of the best fresh tortillas in the area and amazing adobo if they have it when you are there, also good placeros Mexican Doggis is a truck with pretty good pastor and very good mexican hot dogs ricos tacos chilaquiles rojos is maybe the spiciest dish in nyc, very good flavor also amy grocery has great homemade nieves
