The @newsdayfeedme team just put out our best dishes we ate this April. I wrote about a stellar breakfast sandwich, and this fish …

The fish pollichathu was the highlight of a recent lunch at the new @crown_of_spices in Levittown. The kitchen specializes in Southern Indian recipes from Tamil Nadu, and whoa!!!! I’ve been Googling all week to find more restaurants like this. I don’t want to give too much away but I’ll just say the one thing that got deleted from my blurb, holy schnikes!

The rest is at the link in my bio. Less

🐷 “Dead Piglet”

✨ Behind the scenes of my review at Cerdito Muerto in Pilsen, a Mexican American restaurant and cocktail bar, reincarnating a father’s pool hall, a mother’s taqueria, and a childhood home

🌮 Mamá Coco’s al pastor taco

🐐 birria taco (by chef Becky Carson inspired by Consuelo Oceguera’s recipe)

🕊️ Guillermo’s Paloma (from beverage consultant / Wednesday bartender Guillermo Martinez)

🍓 sin piquete

☕️ café de olla ice cream

🐓 Al’s tinga tostada (sound on for cromch)

@silkroadtx

They have been open for almost a year now and are in prime location in copell

Their chicken 65 is probably the the best thing on the menu and also that matka lamb biryani 🔥
You can also get plenty of non alcoholic drinks as they have its own menu

All meat options here are halal and confirmed with ownership‼️

Rating:
Overall - 8.3

X @firin.bakery

SICILIAN STYLE PIZZAS 🍕 🇮🇹

Fully HMS certified halal spot that not enough people know about. From Turkish to desi to American fusion bakery items..but their pizzas are what you need to go for ASAP 🤤

No additives..no artificial coloring and no bleached flour, it reminded me of the bakery stops i was many in Roma walking around 😋

They are in their soft opening phase right now but the word is already out. They have been running our almost daily so visit them ASAP 🔥
