"Bangkok City is a Bird Road staple that’s been around since 1987 and has what we think is the best crispy duck in Miami. There are several ways you can order it, but we like the royal thai basil version with chili paste, bell peppers, and basil leaves. It’s sweet, sticky, and crunchy—like the crispy duck version of caramel popcorn. But Bangkok City has other great dishes. The massaman curry with beef has a slow burn that creeps up on you the way sitting too close to a campfire does. But the peanuts and sweet coconut curry balance the heat." - mariana trabanino, ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo
