"The Tiger Cry is a crowd favorite: grilled marinated steak is served with a savory dipping sauce made of onion, mint, rice powder, chili, cilantro, and fresh lime. The meat is tender, while the fantastic sauce adds complex umami notes to each bite."
"A northern Thai favorite, the Khao Soi (my go-to at any Thai restaurant) is a must here - a rich and creamy coconut curry soup packed with egg noodles and topped with bright pickled greens and chunks of well-seasoned chicken, cilantro, and onion."
"For larger groups, the Pra Sam Rod (three-flavor fish) should definitely be the centerpiece of the table for just $28.95. The fish has impossibly crispy skin, juicy meat, and a tangy, layered, sweet-and-sour spicy sauce; a real showstopper."
