The best Thai food on Long Island? We think we’ve found it here at Sri Thai in Huntington Village. I’d like to preface this by saying I lived in Thailand for about 6 months and explored the country with a keen desire to learn about the locals and the land.

The parade still went on and the participants and parade-goers were steadfast in their determination not to let the foul weather ruin their parade. I submitted the photos to the Long Islander so there is...
