Queens Food
June 4th, 2007
Instead of long-winded reviews about how yummy it all was, here are some photos of food I’ve enjoyed recently. (More at my Eats Flickr set.) As always, Chowhound and Joey in Astoria are the places to stay hip to Q boro food options. From top left to bottom right:
- Juicy tofu wrap at the Fresh Start Market
- The welcoming meat tray at Los Portales
- Soft-Shell Crabs à la Marcy
- Huevos Rancheros at Taco Mexico
- The Thai Meat Salad at Sripraphai
- Fries at Water Taxi Beach
- Poached eggs on puff pastry shell over sauteed spinach with wild mushrooms at Mundo
- Not a picture of food. This Mexican wrestler came to my house and demanded to be photographed for Muckworld… or else! He is enjoying a nice cup of Bewley’s Irish tea.

One question. Do you eat the guts of a soft-shelled crab? Because you don’t when it’s a hard shell. What’s the difference?

Honestly, I try not to think about it too much. The guy at the fish store “cleans” them for me, which I gather is a euphemism for killing & gutting. We eat whatever’s left after that, and it’s tasty.
