Avila’s El Ranchito. 6703 Santa Fe Ave. (chile relleno and a cup of the chicken soup!) http://avilaselranchito.net/

I don’t know if it is what you are looking for but there was a recent post about the clam chowder at Soup Freaks being good.

its never been a knock your socks off place....good dependable seafood. i like to sit at the raw bar...some oysters, some good soup and bull with the staff on off hours always a New Years day stop for me on my way back to 2nd...

Fu Leen on Division Street, which I consider the best lunch buy in Chinatown. $5 for a dinner sized and quality dish, along with rice and soup.

I totally mailed it in on this one. I mean I shoved the carcass in a sauce pan with maybe two quarts of water and just let it rip. For sure boiled for some time. It just kind of freaked me out because I’ve never really done...

be new and not freak out dinner companions (a consideration that ruled out the quest for guinea pig in Jackson Heights). I know Public in Manhattan does kangaroo. I’m assuming any good cajun place should do gator (but would...

See the main Manhattan board—people recommend 3 or so places. I’ve had the fondue at Artisinal and it was very nice, the rest of the food decent but not “wow”. If you’re a cheese freak, I’d...

a Bloody Mary nutrition. Soup Freaks. I walk in, I can’t figure out what to order, I walk out. I’ve done this more than once. $4 for a bowl of soup? repeat visits: Happy Sushi truck. I like the Okinanawa soba, small for...

So I just finished my carryout lunch. I ate a non-representative sample of their menu – two appetizers (dumplings with sichuan chili sauce and sesame noodles) and a soup (hot and sour wonton). The verdict on these three...

of sometimes overcooking the noodles (which usually freaks me out) doesn’t bother me much. Also, their Hu Tieu noodle soup (get it with the noodles and the broth served seperately) blows my mind. In a serious way. Their...

Yep it’s really fun taking newbies and ordering giant clam if it’s completly fresh and still moving. I have freaked out several people by doing this, almost as much fun is ordering the fish head soup and eating the...

It’s slim pickin’s around here for lunch. Soup Freaks has good takeout — fresh salads and really good soups (the Hungarian lecso is a favorite). If I don’t bring my own, I usually end up either there or...

First of all, it’s pronounced “New-fund-LAND.” The standard mnemonic offered by locals is, “You must underSTAND we’re in NewfoundLAND!” One cannot overstate the importance of not merely...

oils are bullies (her words) to the nostrils. She’s none too pleased when I apply parmesan to my pasta, either. I must eat dried squid/cuttlefish in private, as well. And smoked oysters also freak her out, I recently...

Katsuno is SO freaking good. The last few times I’ve been there its been scary empty, and I’m really afraid they’re not gonna make it in their current location. Please go there! I would miss their food...
