And it is… Beth! She told us: “My favorite Queens restaurant is Ornella in Astoria. I went there for my birthday and we were one of the only couples in the restaurant, the owner gave us very special attention, and the food was divine. Close second for L’Incontro, a less intimate but equally delicious and special experience.” Congratulations, Beth! Please shoot us an email and we’ll make the arrangement for you to claim your prize. By the way, I loved all the restaurant suggestions you guys made in the comments! Here is the list – it’s full of amazing spots. I was particularly happy to see a mention of Thailand’s Center Point, which makes one of the best dishes of larb (a cold ground meat salad seasoned with scallions and shallots, lime, mint, fish sauce, and cilantro; it often has rice in it) I’ve ever had. IMO, theirs is the best in Queens.
