Dave,
I am - of course - honored. Glad you dug the Durian Shake. The first time we went - my wife and I - she actually had the shake, and shared a little bit of it with me. We both thought it had a vomity before-taste, but, was actually uniquely rewarding in a way that is impossible to describe. And, yes, the other shakes, such as the Jackfruit, are so cold that I sometimes think they force themselves down the wrong tube. They do hurt the heart on a hot summer’s day. For what it’s worth, I still say these guys make the best Banh Mi in NYC. A lot of people sing the praises of Saigon Banh Mi on Mott, and they’re really good too, but, for my money, it’s Ba Xuyen.
As I really dig your postings, especially when they include your cabisodes, I am - again - delighted to have been able to contribute. Based on your excellent Harlem blog of a few weeks ago, I can’t wait to hit Londel’s for some chicken and waffles (only at lunchtime, when their prices are more down to earth). So it cuts both ways.
Appropos of nothing…when do I get my free food tour?
