Another restaurant that didn’t make it to 2013: Singha Thai in West Babylon.
The modest little Thai spot got a 2 ½ star rating in 2010. “Zero ambience,” read the review. “But plenty of panache — on the plate.”
Well remembered are sticky rice with chicken and vegetables wrapped in a banana leaf — an Asian tamale and drunken noodles that offered “both a jolt and a hug.”
