Chinese food during covid-19, lol

I wouldn't go there for salad. You need to know how to order there. Only certain things that are great. Go there for gyro both chicken and lamb, souvlaki, falafel. Not sure why it was bland.

No salt?

Richie Mario's in Oceanside has been open until 8:00 takeout and delivery.

They will be closed starting on April 6.

They told me only closed for a week to give the workers a break....they've been crazy.

Gino's in RVC closed due to an employee catching covid 19.

Story with so many places that were open until one day they weren’t. Be safe

Noticing in general that takeout food quality is suffering greatly during this covid19 situation. Seems like restaurants may be short staffed, dealing with lack of supply of ingredients, or using old stock since turnover is very slow these days.

Pizza is your friend.

Agree. And the temperature at which a pie comes out of the oven and straight into the box, no chance of CV standing against that heat

A mix of all three scenarios. Places are emptying their fridges and especially their freezers. So you might be getting some older freezer burnt cuisine.

Don’t forget markets are in short supply as vendors aren’t taking as much with fears they won’t move it to restaurants.

Short staffed is an understatement for most restaurants. The good pizza places are killing it. 8 deep behind the counter at umbertos in elmont Saturday night.

What kind of gyros do they have, all beef, all lamb, or 50/50?

What do you guys think about AZ Grill in Bayside, Queens? I thought they have some of the best gyros I’ve ever had in Queens!

I like the truck on northern and bell myself.

I haven't made pizza from scratch in a long time. But apparently Jared Kushner said the National Yeast Stockpile isn't for states to use, so.....

There's a good Gyro spot in Centereach. I don't know the name but its in the wallmart shopping center.
Not as good as Fontana. But good for Suffolk county.

Good Indian food suggestions?

 

[NINE-LIVES]

Try looking in Hicksville area. Tons of Indian establishments in that neighborhood.

I don’t have a specific place, as Indian food is not my thing. Tons of well reviewed places in that area.

Hicksville, yes...
The name is misleading, but Chili and Curry in Woodbury Road near LIRR, is one of the best

I always liked zorba the Greek in port Jeff. Haven't had it in 20 years though

For my money, the best Indian restaurant is Hillside Dosa Hutt. Raj is the owner and he loves his customers. He delights in perfection and observes your ecstasy as you indulge. Each dosa is a work of art as well as all other dishes. Not a formal place but truly excellent. I have taken Chinese ladies there and converted them to Indian food lovers. The owner, Raj, made his bones learning his craft in a restaurant by the Hindu Temple.

I remember a hot summer night there and we ordered a whole lot and not drinking but getting high off the spice and the big screen TV playing exotic Indian rock music like Krishna Temple Rock and it had the aura of an opium den without the drugs because the food and music was that good and I looked up at Raj and he snickered and winked because he knew I just got the meaning of life.
