damnlines hasn't pointed a lens at Thai Thai Grocery yet. The most-wanted lines get a camera first.
Thai Thai Grocery's hot-food counter sells Thai-style fried bananas, taro, and sweet potato (kluay kha) only on Saturdays and Sundays, priced around $5 a box, according to the shop's own listing (thai-thai-grocery.res-menu.com). Coverage of Elmhurst's 'Little Thailand' corridor (Untapped New York) frames the weekend counter as a defining, demand-driven feature of the store rather than a standing daily offering.
Because the batch is limited, some items reportedly sell out before closing on weekend afternoons, and the shop's listing recommends calling ahead — (917) 769-6168 — to confirm availability before making the trip, per thai-thai-grocery.res-menu.com. This is a sell-out/scarcity pattern rather than a physical queue, but it drives the same 'go early or miss it' urgency as a line.
