"Little Grenjai made a name for Thai-style smash burgers out of its Bed-Stuy storefront." - Melissa McCart

"In due time, any dish that earns the label 'American' will be reimagined, from pizza to the hot dog to the chicken wing, as each generation of newcomers takes flavors they know and combine them with what they find. Of late, the smashburger has been getting this treatment to much cheer. The husband-wife duo at this inviting little restaurant tucked away in Brooklyn’s Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood has raised the bar with a Thai American version that takes krapow, the spicy, tangy, basil-packed ground meat stir-fry from the wok to the griddle. Opt for the double, two charred beef and pork smashed patties laced with garlic and Thai chiles, topped with melted American cheese, spicy house-made giardiniera pickles, fresh leaves of Thai basil, and XO sauce, all sandwiched by a sesame seed bun. Be forewarned, the ingenuity is only available at lunch." - ByThe Bon Appétit Staff & Contributors
