I love Thai food. It’s my second favorite food (tacos are first, of course). Thai cuisine is so unique. It’s one of the most popular cuisines in the world, and it has grown to be very popular in the U.S. Thai food is never disappointing. The flavor combinations are so interesting. Some common ingredients in […]
For me, the years from 2009 to 2012 consisted mostly of Fresh Meadows. I went to school here, at Francis Lewis High School. So I kind of have a soft spot for it. High school is usually a strange experience for us all. Personally, I didn’t like high school until senior year. Senior year was […]
Fries are a pretty common guilty pleasure. Well, they are for me, at least. I constantly crave them and I can never have just one. They’re my weakness. My Achilles heel. I even like the fries from McDonald’s, and I don’t particularly like McDonald’s. Not only are french fries my kryptonite, but also speciality fries. […]
What’s the key to my heart? Tacos. Every kind. All of the time. A variety of different flavors come together on a glorious bed of tortilla. All of the ingredients become one. Tacos can be fast food (I’m a sucker for Taco Bell), but can also be really dressed up and maybe fancy! (Romantic, even…) […]
Elmhurst, Queens. Going into this, I didn’t know much about Elmhurst. I know that my mom used to take me there to get my hair cut when I was little. For some reason we stopped going to that specific barber shop (still not sure why). I know that Elmhurst Hospital is there, which is where my […]
Hi guys! This is my very first QC Voices post of the new semester, welcome back! You can find my last post about bagel shops around Queens here. I’ve decided to dedicate my first post of the new year to a neighborhood that I know relatively well, Rego Park. A few of my really good friends live […]
Bagels are bae. I never really understood completely what bae means, but according to Urban Dictionary, its seems to be a good thing. Right…? Bagels are “before anyone/anything else.” Mainly because they’re a breakfast food, consumed before any other meal of the day. Secondly, because they are just so damned delicious and they make people happy. Or […]
Everybody likes pizza. Everybody LOVES pizza. That’s kind of an overstatement, but based on the hype pizza gets, it seems like I’m not the only one who could eat it every day and not care (or probably even notice.) Even the name is kind of fun. The world pizza sounds like something that would be […]
Jackson Heights, Queens, is a super diverse neighborhood. There is the Hispanic community and the Indian and Tibetan community, which I wrote about in a previous post. I noticed, only after creating the list of places I want to talk about, that all of these places are actually Colombian. Therefore, today I’ll be talking about Colombian […]
Jackson Heights, Queens is a melting pot. There’s a vast Indian, Tibetan and Nepali community with a lot of unique restaurants and shops. There is also a Hispanic community. In this post we’re going to focus on Indian and Tibetan restaurants in Jackson Heights. It’s easy to get to this neighborhood by taking the train to […]
