Roast Duck Green Curry
SriPraPhai
Woodside, NY
Sorry, but this is still the best Thai in New York City—even though it’s across the river in Queens. The combination of roasted duck, tomatoes, pineapple and coconut milk in this dish offers the perfect balance of Thai flavors.
Marinated Grilled Octopus
Mandolin
Miami
This Aegean bistro does octopus in a very simple preparation. It’s tender, beautifully charred and needs nothing else.
Arroz a la Plancha
Tertulia
New York City
I order the Arroz a la Plancha every time I go to this Spanish gastropub. The dish is prepared with Calasparra rice, snails, wild mushrooms, celery, fennel and Ibérico ham. It's like risotto that has been cooked by a street vendor in Valencia.
Grapefruit Givre
Boulud Sud
New York City
This frozen grapefruit creation is one of the best desserts in town. It’s exotic and delicious.
