"Some people might tell you that the Northeast is all about the steaks and sandwiches. And they wouldn’t be wrong. But it’s also full of Thai places—House Of Thai being the very best. The takeout-only spot is one of our go-tos for a standout casual dinner, but they open at 11am, so you can also grab a quick lunch and Thai iced tea before heading back to the office. Don’t miss the lightly breaded, perfectly chewy Siam chicken, the creamy green curry packed with tender eggplant, and anything with duck in it (it’s their specialty)." - alison kessler
