Profile

The secret to great Thai food is the artful intermingling of flavors—hot, sour, salty, sweet. The secret to great tom kha gai—that restorative chicken-and-coconut-milk soup—is to cram it with flavor-enhancers like galangal and lemongrass, both of which are underrepresented in New York Thai restaurants. Not at this tin-ceilinged Jackson Heights standby, though, where the same attention to detail is applied to the refreshingly zesty salads and Thai classics like panang curry, tantalizingly redolent of basil and kaffir-lime leaf. — Rob Patronite and Robin Raisfeld

Recommended Dishes

Deep-fried fish with chilli sauce, $20.95; crab with mango salad, $16.95; Panang Curry, $8.95

This is a great little neighborhood Thai restaurant. It's as authentic as it gets..... You'd think you were in Bangkok. Try the green papaya salad for starters. Don't be a chicken....ask for spicy. You'll love the whole fish in chili-garlic sauce. Standards such as pad thai and green curry are also excellent. In season, get mango and sticky rice for desert...you won't be disappointed!
