"The bamboo walls at this uber-popular spot sparkle like a disco ball when it’s sunny out, so it’s a great place for brunch on a nice weekend day. (But you should come even if the weather sucks.) Thai Diner’s must-order item is the buttery egg-and-cheese roti, which keeps all of its components compact, so that every bite includes the same layers and flavors. From top to bottom, you’ll taste herby sai oua sausage, a mash of mayo and scallions, a soft egg crepe covered in oozing american cheese, and a few slivers of fresh Thai basil. Get that and the Thai tea babka french toast, and you’re in for what is easily Nolita’s best brunch." - neha talreja, will hartman, bryan kim, kenny yang
