Fried & grilled chicken fingers, 8 Thai sauces, tropical drinks
"When the Thai Diner team announced their new chicken finger operation, we were expecting something humble, not this full-on fast food hallucination. The Nolita takeout spot does in fact serve chicken fingers—in a variety of flavors, with eight dipping sauces—but it also has chicken burgers, soft serve, cold green curry noodles, and a McDonald’s-style filet o’tofu with a roasted chili sauce, among other things. It’ll take us a while to nail down the perfect order, and we’ll have plenty of time to reflect on it as we wait in the block-long line." - bryan kim, molly fitzpatrick, willa moore, will hartman, sonal shah, will hartman, molly fitzpatrick, willa moore, willa moore, will hartman, bryan kim, molly fitzpatrick, willa moore, molly fitzpatrick, will hartman, molly fitzpatrick, will hartman, bryan kim, willa moore, molly fitzpatrick, willa moore, willa moore, sonal shah, willa moore
"One of the best restaurants in NYC is now tackling chicken fingers. At Mommy Pai’s, a Thai/Americana mashup from the team behind Thai Diner, you can get your chicken fingers grilled or fried in a few different flavors, with eight Thai-inspired sauces to choose from. The takeout-oriented spot also offers a cheeseburger-inspired chicken sandwich, a tofu take on a Filet-O-Fish, and a long list of sides including waffle fries, sticky rice, and curry puff mozzarella sticks." - will hartman, willa moore, molly fitzpatrick, sonal shah, bryan kim

"A forthcoming takeout-only concept from the same owners focused on Thai-style chicken fingers and tropical fruit drinks, scheduled to open this summer as a casual, grab-and-go counter aimed at fans of their other restaurants." - Emma Orlow
