Hey there WLAers! Let me introduce myself:

My name is Ann, I'm a journalist and fairly recent NYC transplant. I moved here from Buffalo in January 2011 and I've been loving the place ever since. After several great meals (and several failed attempts to drag friends up to Astoria), I decided I needed to tell people about one of the neighborhood's most winning qualities: eats!

Hungry 'Hood is all about brief, anecdotal portraits of meals around the area. Take a look at this year's reviews:

• Butcher Bar
• Petey's Burger
• San Antonio Bakery 2
• Martha's Country Bakery
• Sabry's
• The Queens Kickshaw
• JJ's Asian Fusion
• Queens Comfort
• Harissa
