Thai Tai Eatery is another business that was chosen. It will be selling its popular bánh mì sandwich, which includes Vietnamese sausage.
The Maspeth eatery is owned by couple Rung Vora and Yan Lim. They opened the restaurant in 2023 and said being chosen to serve their cuisine at Citi Field is the opportunity of a lifetime.
'It's so amazing. I'm so grateful to join this event, and I'm going to do my best to work with the team and do bánh mì for everyone,' Vora said. 'Hopefully business will pick up and everyone will know us more than now.'
The couple moved to New York from Thailand in 1996. They said this is a great way to showcase their menu and heritage to the rest of the city.
Both Thai Tai Eatery and Dorado Tacos and Quesadillas will be available at every Mets game from July 1 to Sept. 21.
Arepalicious from Ozone Park and Fieldtrip from Manhattan will be at the games from April 4 to June 26.
