Not only is Elmhurst Queens’ second Chinatown; it’s home to a thriving Southeast Asian community. Join Queens-based food writer Joe DiStefano for a guided tour of Indonesian, Vietnamese, and Thai markets and restaurants.
Sample Indonesian dishes like stewed jackfruit and crunchy keripik kentang kacang manis, Indonesia’s sweet spicy and savory take on potato chips, at Java Village. Tuck into a Vietnamese sandwich while sipping a salty lemonade. Browse a Thai market for ingredients like kaffir lime leaves, and curry pastes. Sample such Thai delicacies as goong chae nam pla, or raw shrimp marinated in fish sauce served atop bitter melon, and kluay khak—a delectable mixture of fried taro, sweet potato, and plantain.
