What’s Wowing Me Now

Drunken noodle at Little Bee Thai: All hail the return of the queen! Little Bee is back, and I, for one, couldn’t “bee” happier. My favorite thing about Thai food is that there aren’t a lot of fixed rules for dishes, and they vary greatly depending on where the chef is from and how his or her family did things. So when you find a Thai cook you love, you stick with her. If you like your food spicy, just ask, and chef Took Charemwong will send out a fresh chili sauce that will melt your face right off.
