Spock Hand

Happy Birthday to my little sister Bonesli!

My mom said all she wants for Xmas is a bag of frozen chicken empanadas. Yes, they are that good. It's worth a trip out to Jackson Heights, plus they're open 24 on Friday and Saturday!

Speaking of Jackson Heights, there's a great Tibetan place right under the Roosevelt station called Tibetan Yak. be and i ate there once and i loved their hot potato dish. be was searching for a bowl of hand-rolled noodle soup like he used to eat at Lhasa in the East Village before they closed. The noodle soup at Tibetan Yak was not the same, although still good. When you're seated you each receive a cup of butter tea, which sounds strange but makes sense for a cold day. I've had butter tea at another place and this version is much better. You know a restaurant is really good and authentic when it also rents VHS tapes and sells phone cards.
