Just Another Pok Pok Monday

Flo Fab reports in Off the Menu, from today's dining section, that Portland chef Andy Ricker's Pok Pok Ny will be opening for dinner in Cobble Hill, Brooklyn this Monday, at 127 Columbia Street. 

Ricker first gave NYC a taste of his Thai fried chicken with Pok Pok Wing, which opened in the Lower East Side, at 137 Rivington Street in January.  Pok Pok Ny will serve a wide array of Northern Thai food, including spicy minced catfish salad and sweet-and-sour game hen.

Seriouseats sat down with Andy a month ago to pok pick his brain about the allure of Thai food.  When Pok Pok Ny opens Monday, Ricker doesn't want you to expect anything fancy, "we don't have any fucking tweezers."
