In Short
This sunny eatery occupies part of the 1859 Sampson-Henricks building, which is adorned with Thai sculptures and the owner's handmade artwork. The crowd is mainly a mix of students and professionals who work downtown. Menu items include a ginger-infused shrimp stir-fry sauteed with onion, mushroom, celery and basil, spicy pa-nang red curry and pra-ram chicken topped with a smooth peanut sauce. For lunchtime diners, a quick meal can be made from their fresh spring rolls and signature fried rice.
