    Little Myanmar - Tea Leaf Salad  Original

Original tea leaf salad and coconut chicken noodle soup were both incredible. The salad was a little pricey (I think like $21 for the small?) but worth it. Also note there is no restroom.

    We came to Little Myanmar today (08/30), and unfortunately, the experience was extremely…read moredisappointing. There are already very limited options for Burmese food in the city, so we traveled over 45 minutes specifically to try this place. Only after arriving did we find out that they are cash only, something that was not clearly advertised online. We explained that we had traveled 45+ minutes to get there and asked if there was any alternative way to pay. We offered Zelle, Venmo, or even placing the order through DoorDash and simply eating the food there. Every option was declined. I also explained that I didn't have a debit card with me, but there was absolutely no willingness to work with us or offer any alternative. Being cash-only is one thing. Failing to clearly communicate that beforehand and then showing zero flexibility when customers have traveled a significant distance is another. Very disappointing customer experience. I genuinely don't understand how a business can operate this way and expect customers to return. We certainly won't be coming back.

Though on a serious note--kinda bummed bc I wanted to make one last visit before they closed July 17, though unfortunately I didn't make it back to town in time :( What a loss of a cultural connection point for the city! Food is a gateway to experiencing and understanding other cultures and this location was front and center in midtown, blocks from Times Square. In a sea of other cuisines, this part of Southeast Asia didn't/doesn't have much representation in general in Manhattan, and even less so now. Scouring articles and comments online I'm keeping my fingers crossed that they're able to find a different space in the near future! Was it the best food court? I'll admit this was easily debatable for many reasons. But each stall had their own standouts. Tradsiyon was a later addition though had really solid braised meat and veggie bowls; Hainan Jones stepped into a midtown scene several years ago with no other similar Hainanese chicken spots in midtown (a few others thankfully are around today); Kopifellas brought uniquely Singaporean/Malasian tea and coffee options; I still remember the first bite of Prawnaholic's signature shrimp and rib noodles tasting that savory goodness for the first time; and most of all I will dearly miss this location of Lady Wong, where I rarely walked away empty handed. Thank you for the memories (and think about that movie plot twist I mentioned above)!

We ordered the roti & massaman curry, summer rolls, Beef Pad See Ew & Shrimp Pad Thai. The pad thai was too sweet, like they went overboard with the palm sugar. The Pad See Ew was the highlight of the meal, nearly perfect. The summer rolls were also great, and the massaman curry had great flavor, however the curry was very thin and didnt hold onto the roti very well and for $12 i expected more than 8 small triangles of roti. We still had a full cup of curry left when the roti was gone. The real problem I had was when it came time to pay the check. I was asked "cash or card" and i said card and the waiter brought over a sign from another table with a 5% cash discount and a 2.95% credit card surcharge. None of this information was disclosed by the server or on the menu, so it's illegal. When I called them out on their bullshit, they played dumb. I left cash for the amount of the bill and not a penny more. Here's your tip : don't try and fuck your customers with hidden fees and be transparent about your pricing.

Of course, we opted to try things that were out of the "norm". We started with the Khun Pan Pld Fashioned (which is old fashion with a Thai tea twist), of course, Thai iced tea, soft shell crab larb (omg so mouth watering) and the Pla Muk Tod (Fried Tumeric Coconut Calamari). These were new on the summer menu and I hope they stay! The dipping sauce in the calamari was sweet, tangy and syrupy with some heat but not too sweet. It was good without the sauce but with it, made it even better. The soft shell crab larb, wow, blew us away. The crunch and heat factor with the basil "salad" was out of this world. It is definitely spicy but is soo tasty. From their "privileged" menu, we had the duck chu chee which is a crispy roasted duck in a creamy mildly spicy red curry - the duck and curry was soo bomb, super crispy and stands out from other places. Finally the Royal Thai Spiced Lamb which is grilled lamb chops with karee curry sauce, snow pea tips and roti, sooo flavorful and so good. The veggies and the lamb paired so well with the curry sauce. It was not gamey or chewy but after all the appetizers I could not finish this dish. For dessert, we did try the Khao Neaw Puak which is a taro sticky rice with coconut ice cream. Again different but I think I will pass on this next time. We loved the food and will definitely be back!

We started with the curry puffs and satay buns, both of which were easy wins. No complaints, I would happily order them again. The Khao Soi was the highlight of my meal. Rich, comforting, and packed with flavor. I love when restaurants get this right. They also do super thin noodles in the khao soi which is a plus for me. I also tried a little bit of the crab fried rice which was also incredible. I also ordered the lychee mocktail. The drink itself was fairly average, but it came with a lychee mochi that completely stole the show. I honestly enjoyed the mochi more than the drink itself. Overall, this is just good, no-nonsense Thai food. Nothing feels overly gimmicky. The restaurant focuses on solid flavors, a beautiful space, and warm hospitality. I'd happily come back to work my way through more of the menu.

The corn salad had a heavy hit of tartness to cut through and a small portion which made it edible. The pad thai had a bit of a creative format - they used an egg noodle type dough that they made into a ribbony pancake and topped the inside with fried rice noodles, almost like sev. However, the sauce was incredibly sugary and totally overwhelmed any other flavor, and there was no vegetarian choice for protein. Very disappointing overall.

I came with my boyfriend and we weren't super hungry so we sat at the bar (bartender was friendly and attentive). We kept it light with a couple of cocktails and the steak tartare appetizer (with cured egg yolk, spice, bird's eye chili, and crispy tripe). The dish was beautifully presented and definitely unique compared to other steak tartares I've had. While I usually personally prefer a more minimal approach where the meat really shines, I still appreciated the creativity and bold flavors. The cocktails were solid, and the vibe really stood out. The space has a cool, moody yet chic feel, with industrial elements with intimate lighting and botanical touches. It feels stylish but cozy at the same time - perfect for a date night or a night out with friends. Even though we only sampled a small part of the menu, I'd absolutely be open to coming back to try more dishes. Kru is clearly doing something interesting and intentional, and it's a great spot if you're looking for a trendy, atmospheric dining experience in Brooklyn.

If you like…read moreBirria-Landia, the more well-known and widespread birria truck family, you'll probably like Casa Birria too. And if you haven't had Birria-Landia or birria in general, well, you'll probably still like them! Casa Birria is a simple food truck with a simple menu of just a few items. I noticed they have a few meat options but assuming you eat beef, you of course have to get the birria (slow-cooked beef in a slightly spicy and indulgent broth). It comes in multiple vehicles which are all basically some configuration of tortilla, onions, cilantro, meat, and sometimes cheese depending on what you pick. The taco is the classic and the $12 taco combo is a nice deal, though as a smaller eater and cheese-lover, I personally go for a couple of mulitas. Juicy meat with a bit of heat, melty cheese, and legit corn tortillas soaked in that delicious broth, what's not to love? The truck is open pretty late, has fast straightforward service, and like any truck does not have seating so you have to either eat on the sidewalk or have a place in mind to bring it; there is a park a few blocks up. Definitely cheaper than most meals in this part of the city and I'd be a regular if I lived close by!
