Lung Yai Thai Tapas

Thai restaurant · Little Havana

"You could drive down the street a dozen times and still overlook this intimate little nook that hides in plain sight. Little Havana is certainly an unexpected place to find one of the city’s hottest Thai kitchens, but the long waits are an indication (no reservations) that Chef/owner Veenuthri Trisransri knows what he’s doing. On a menu that mixes typical standbys with Northern specialties, begin with an order of homemade dumplings with a pork or shrimp filling, served steamed or fried. Khao Soi, a coconut-based curry with your choice of protein, bobs with egg noodles and has a rich, creamy profile without too much heat. Tables, plates and even the place itself is small, so order ambitiously and be prepared for a kitchen that sends out dishes faster than you can finish them." - Michelin Inspector
