Restaurants -Long Island, NY cont...

Another gem of a place is hidden in the town of Huntington, just north of Melville.

Sri Thai is located at 14 New St in Huntington. It is located just south of Main St. At first glance it would appear to be a generic Thai place. However, the staff was courteous and knowledgeable and were very open to vegetarian food. Their menu mostly typical of Thai places, with a ton of veggie options. The Buddha Delight appetizer was great; fried tofu with a chili sauce. I ordered Vegetarain Duck as an entree and was not disappointed. It was soy "duck" mixed with green beans, carrots, onions, peppers, chili, and basil. It was wonderful; the sauce was light and the vegetables cooked just right. They have several other options that I did not get a chance to eat, but talked with a patron who really likes their Garlic Tofu, Prik King Tofu, Spicy Tofu, and assorted Tofu Curries. In an area lacking in Asian cuisine, this place was a definite bright light. If you live anywhere near Huntington, I highly recommend this place.
