The latest issue of W42st has a proud theme. Inside there’s a mini zine where you’ll find 5 Asian dishes I’m mostly proud of
Oxtail Fried Rice at Blue Ribbon Sushi – Bone Marrow added for exceptional richness, while fluffy omelette makes it exceptionally good looking. Sauteed Squid is a close runner-up
Tofu at Danji – The only tofu I consistently order in NYC. A Hell’s Kitchen classic
Pad Ped Moo Krob at Larb Ubol– Its like the “Best of Thai” in one dish. Beautiful crispy pork belly, Thai eggplant, peppercorns, curry paste, and plenty of chili heat
Shredded Beef w/Asian Spicy Green Chili at Gourmet Szechuan 56 – Its so good, it makes you put the phone away. Besides, I cant catch a signal here anyway.
Pork and Crab Soup Dumplings at Kung Fu Little Steamed Buns Ramen – I’ve ordered them so many times, they’ve stopped asking what I want. My picture should be on that wall in no time, next to Andrew Zimmern
Hey Ziggy
Took a look and LOVE this magazine. I cannot find your story. What issue did it appear in?

Have you tried the Mapu Tofu at Han Dynasty? My fave.
Been to all of them except for Larb Ubol! Out of the listed dishes I think the oxtail fried rice at Blue Ribbon Sushi is my favourite 👍👍Then the tofu at Danji 👍 But they’re all good ……😋
Yes, that tofu dish at Danji is great. But I still dream about eggplants in garlic sauce at Gourmet Szechuan 56. The small purple eggplants in their glistening sauce is one of the prettiest dishes I’ve ever seen. And delish too.
