The food was OUTSTANDING! I got the beef ribs with sweet potato's and stewed okra. The ribs were 1 large bone with a lot of meet on it and in the plate. It was super tender, a little sweet, a little fatty, and delicious. The sweet potato was sliced baked with cinnamon. It had perfect texture and sweetness. The okra was good too. It cost around $6 even though the menu said $12.</p> <p>I highly recommend this place and can't wait to visit again.</p> <p>143 N Franklin St. Hempstead, NY 11550</p> <p><a href="http://www.villageofhempstead.org/photos/121.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://www.villageofhempstead.org/photos/121.jpg</a> </p> http://midtownlunch.com/forums/topic/difaras-shuttered-by-doh#post-22803 Tue, 22 Nov 2011 11:46:36 -0500 Broccoli Rob 22803@http://midtownlunch.com/forums/ <p>67 violations.

We had discussed lunch and my suggestion was Shake Shack. She was OK with this, but would like something a bit more "interesting" than burgers and fries. </p> <p>We live in and she works in Westchester, so when she's in Manhattan she likes to eat at places that she normally doesn't have access to. For example, she loves ramen and likes going to Ippudo when we're in Manhattan together.</p> <p>Any lunch suggestions are appreciated. Thanks in advance. </p> http://midtownlunch.com/forums/topic/lapin-strikes-again#post-20030 Tue, 14 Dec 2010 13:14:44 -0500 Wellerfan 20030@http://midtownlunch.com/forums/ <p><a href="http://www.dnainfo.com/20101214/upper-east-side/taco-truck-ousted-from-upper-east-side" rel="nofollow">http://www.dnainfo.com/20101214/upper-east-side/taco-truck-ousted-from-upper-east-side</a> </p> http://midtownlunch.com/forums/topic/cevap-bourek-truck-21st-broadway#post-19923 Wed, 01 Dec 2010 16:32:55 -0500 khubird 19923@http://midtownlunch.com/forums/ <p>Yugoslavian sausages, burgers and meat/spinach pies at 21st and Broadway.
