Had an excellent roast pig last year at:
F.L.H. Seafood
1968 86th St, Brooklyn, NY 11214

Glad you liked it, Jim. I'm no expert on Jamaican food and I know that traditional Jerk is barbecued so thanks for putting this in context. I hope to check out the other items on their short menu. But as I noted the patties were not special, from Golden Crust.

Try Stolovaya, the Russian ravioli restaurant at 813 Ave U. They have a good kiev.

They said 8a to 8p.

Forgot to mention info:
Slope Cafe
453 4th Avenue
718-788-4483

Actually kind of hidden in plain sight. On the corner of Fourth Ave and 10th St. Looks like a bare bones cafe, but tiny sign says Caribbean Food. I had a good jerk chicken with rice & peas and cabbage. Also a hearty chicken and dumpling soup. Everything homemade except for the patties. Worth checking out.

I believe the PTC is open on Sixth Ave & 15th St in Manhattan.

Went on Saturday but the Burmese food stand within the grocery is gone. No other info was forthcoming. A shame to lose the only Burmese food in Brooklyn. If anyone has info please post.

Mitchell's Soul Food on Vanderbilt is excellent home cooking.

Mexican,Israeli, Tibetan, Filipino, etc. Try searching the board.

I went on a Wed but the Burmese counter was closed. They said he takes a day or two off a week, but always there on weekends.

Liman is open. Went there Saturday night.

Sounds like a great birthday meal.
Speaking of calamari do you know if Randazzo's in Sheepshead Bay is back in business?

Let's all encourage him to expand his Burmese menu!

Not to be punning but isn't this a case of the tail wagging the dog?

Great work! Thanks!

Interesting! Where on U did you see this?

How does this place compare to Spicy Pot on Fort Hamilton Pkway & 59th St?

For an elderly friend who lives at 96th and West End.
What is the best, closest place to buy take out hummus, preferably in pints?
Thanks

I've liked the Naruto ramen. The other ramens I've tried there are not that good.

There's Naruto on 5th Ave near Garfield. Not bad. Connected to ramen places on Lex & 22 and 9th Ave & 58 in Manhattan.

Nonna Rosa or La Villa.

On the Ocean Ave side of campus is the Avenue H station of the Q train. You can take it to Avenue U for the nearby Chinatown or to Canal Street (40 minutes) to the Manhattan Chinatown.

There's a small Chinatown on Avenue U between Ocean and Coney Island Avenues. A 10 minute drive or short train ride from Brooklyn College.

Any opinions on the best brand or shop?
Thanks

Ate for the first time at Shayna's on Saturday. Didn't try the doubles but the vegetable plate and the chicken roti very good. She made the rotis fresh from scratch as I watched.

I heard in July that they were closed for renovations, so I'm glad to hear they reopened. What dishes do you like there?

I was driving through on way back from Finger Lakes and tried this place. As good or better than what I've had in NYC. Both beef and vegetable kibbes fantastic. Chicken shawarma, lamb kebabs great. Only a few minutes off the interstate.
