Amazingly, after years of reading rave reviews in the NY Times and other magazines breathlessly proclaiming Sripraphai as the "best Thai restaurant in NYC", it had never occured to me to take the #7 train out to Woodside to sample their dishes. And whenever I was in the area, it was to din... Read More

I've been trying to figure how to write about what is almost universally acclaimed as the best, most authentic Thai restaurant in New York, a place that has been widely reviewed, not to mention discussed to death on foodie chat boards. I really have nothing of substance to add. What would be the ... Read More

From Serious Eats: New York After having conquered—maybe "endured" is a better word—Brick Lane Curry House's phaal curry challenge, I'm beginning to suspect everyone at the Serious Eats HQ are not-so-secretly using me as a guinea pig to see how much spiciness one can take before... Read More

Sriprapahi, Woodside, Queens A few weeks ago, I made a return trip to the once discreet and hard to find Sripraphai Thai restaurant in Woodside, Queens (pronounced see-pah-fie as noted all over their menus). Everytime I visit, Sripraphai is slowly turning from what used to be a humble Mom and... Read More

Sripraphai could be said to be the restaurant that Chowhound, the Web bulletin board frequented by intrepid food hunters, built. When the site started up, in 1997, the place was a thirty-five-seat hole in the wall. Chowhounders--who, by disposition, relish a foray into Queens--began posting about... Read More

For the perfect dining diversion between holiday forced feedings, we turn to Queens, treasure trove of ethnic eats. Sripraphai, Zum Stammtisch and Athens Tavern, offer the most authentic Thai in the East, a folkloric German marking a major anniversary, and a newly arrived Greek daring to be differen... Read More

AG had aged another year, and I met up with him, MC, and MH at the acclaimed Sripraphai in Woodside to have dinner in his honor. I first discovered this place back when it was just a cluster of tables in a small store lined with dried goods and snacks, and back then I found it to be one of the most eye-opening Thai restaurants in the city. Over the years I've been happy to see it stay one of the ... Read More

Oh Sripraphai. You have eluded me for so long. Yes, every restaurant review begins with a story. This one'll be quick, I hope. I have heard about Sripraphai for years and years.
