Elmhurst may have the best Thai food in the country. There’s a killer Thai steam-table place called Khao Kang. I don’t know the Colombian stuff too well though. Some friends took me for huge Colombian tamales in Jackson Hts. recently. They were pretty good but I was not blown away.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:38pm

Then they took me to 969 Coffee which has amazing onigirazu (sushi-style sandwiches). I definitely did NOT expect to find that in Jackson Hts.

That’s a particularly good choice if your time is limited. Point to your 3 amazing things over rice, pay, eat them, go. It’s pricier than Chinese steam-table-style places, but worth it.

Cool! I also know there's SriPraPhai up by there, there's also another joint that the foodies are all about, maybe it's your steam table place rec.
