Given a boost during the pandemic, the notion of 'touchless' or 'contactless' food ordering has once again become a dining option.I recently stumbled across an early '50s photo of Audrey Hepburn, white gloves and all, standing in front of a row of chrome and glass cubicles at a Manhattan Horn & Hardart Automat.
Gone is the polished-brass posh of the original automats — which proliferated across the U.S. in the early 20th century then all but disappeared with the birth of fast food chains — but at least no nickels are involved. Once each order is ready, Lombrano's system will send a text message with a code to tap that opens your cubicle and allows you to claim your food.
Pad Thai also makes an appearance at T's Thai Express. However, that ghost kitchen's Thai-style honey pork ribs stood out as a unique dish. Slow-braised and wok-seared, they're served in a"secret brown sauce" which appears much more abundant in the online photo. The not-so-secret end result was four plump, tender and sweet ribs with little visual or textural appeal but decent Asian-spice flavor. If you order them, a side of simple fried rice might be appropriate.
The prize for packaging, hands down, has to go to The Royal Pasty Co. The name evokes British roots but the baked empanadas — artfully crimped around generous fillings that range from ground beef with cheese and bacon to poblanos and corn and apple cinnamon — speak many languages and make perfect handheld snacks. They come in a nifty, logo-sealed box along with a couple of herbal sauces.
