ghang Thai Kitchen is one of my go-to places to eat in the nabe- it’s delicious, super affordable, no-frills, and best of all, BYOB. The second branch of the Smith Street Thai restaurant is set to open either this week or next at 229 Court Street, just a block away from Joya. The new ghang has a different, sleeker look than the original, with a fancier takeout menu to match. Perhaps the most major distinction is that the new ghang has a bar, so don’t show up with a six-pack. Let’s hope that people stop overcrowding Joya and check out the new ghang, which offers far more variety and quality.
P.S. A new restaurant will be opening soon next door to the Court Street ghang…
New York Times: CAFé MEI MEI Flooring inspired by Mondrian’s palette (white with red, blue and yellow) and a name borrowed from the owner’s Siberian husky offer no clue that this spot, owned by Robert Ribant, formerly the chef at Michael’s, will serve seasonal fare, emphasizing seafood: 231 Court Street (Baltic Street), Boerum Hill, Brooklyn, (718) 852-8571. Early October.
