"How Far In Advance Should You Book? A week and a half, unless you want to eat at 5pm (or sit outside). This Williamsburg restaurant, which opened in 2021, is still busy, but it’s no longer camp-out-on-the-sidewalk-the-day-before busy. Is that because their Cantonese American food has gone downhill? No. It’s just what happens when the hype train moves on to, say, a new bagel place or a spot selling chobster. Tables on the patio are especially easy to get your hands on, and the MSG martini and salt and pepper squid taste just as good out there." - bryan kim
