"Koo Thai's Steak Jim Jaew consists of a massive, thinly sliced ribeye - preferably cooked rare - served with nam jim jaew, the classic, punchy and tangy Thai dipping sauce."
"Never in a million years would I have imagined that the steak would be this big... or, more important, taste this good. Juicy, tender with just the right chew, gorgeous beefy flavor and with charry undertones from the charcoal grill."
"The punch and tang of the lime, chiles and fish sauce immediately exploded in my mouth, and the overall bite was now more akin to a classic Thai beef salad."
Koo Thai, located on Columbus and West 105th Street, serves a standout dish called Steak Jim Jaew, a ribeye steak priced at $38. This dish, also known as Crying Tiger, features a large, thinly sliced ribeye cooked rare and accompanied by a tangy Thai dipping sauce. Despite being intended as an appetizer, the steak's quality and flavor surpass expectations, offering a juicy and tender experience at a fraction of the cost of other steakhouses in the borough.
