Editor’s Picks
Asian Appetizer
Chang Thai Café owner Emshika Alberini has something fresh and exciting brewing at her Littleton restaurant, which has become a destination for Asian dining in New Hampshire. Chang Thai’s Satay Rolls are “a fusion of fresh summer rolls and chicken satay, wrapped together and served with a rich homemade peanut sauce.” “We are using local farm fresh veggies and mom’s homemade peanut sauce,” she says. changthaicafe.com
Passion-filled Pasta
Presto Craft Kitchen in Manchester has you covered with a carry-out menu fit for everyone in your family. From in-house craft pastas like tortellini al forno to greens, bites and sticks like meatball parmesan (and even party sizes that your picky in-laws would love), the team will help you spend more time with the people around you and less time shopping for them. prestocraftkitchen.com
Japanese by the Sea
Nestled inside the full-service Hotel Thaxter, Nichinan opened in December 2022, and has a legacy of serving exceptional Japanese contemporary cuisine. Nichinan makes a direct nod to Portsmouth’s official sister city in Japan, a relationship that hearkens back to the 1905 Portsmouth Peace Treaty. Chef Andrew Swanson curates fusion dishes that evoke a local, maritime feel. Seaweed salad and roasted Maine oysters are offered, as well as the Chirashi Bowl, a deconstructed sushi roll with kosho Maine crab, king salmon, wakame, tsukemono, avocado and trout roe, and maguro (tuna). nichinanrestaurant.com
