"If you’re craving mala flavors on the UES, head to Hui on East 70th Street. Go straight to Hui’s specials, for mushroom black pepper beef and dry pepper chicken reimagined with sweet pineapple to balance out the spice. The bar up front is ideal for a solo meal, and the back is deceptively spacious (for the UES) with room for groups. Get your group chat together and opt for the whole fish with chopped chilies and plenty of sauce to coat all over your rice and noodles." - neha talreja, hannah albertine, diana kuan, molly fitzpatrick
