Taking up residence in Boran Thai's former digs, this ritzy replacement kicks it up a notch with fresh, creative twists on classic Thai. Vibrant paintings and vivid photos brighten the walls, while milky glass chandeliers illuminate a chic, modern space. If those luscious scents of coconut, basil, and lemongrass don't have your mouth watering, sate your buds with a "wrap and bite"—roasted coconut, peanuts, lime, ginger, and diced shrimp cradled in lettuce leaves, served with a savory ginger sauce. Alternatively, tuck into crispy shrimp and cream cheese "wontons," dress up prawns aside pineapple sweet and sour sauce. Fresh produce and organic fixings weave their way into a menu of salads, curries, noodle, and rice dishes with affordable prices to boot.
