"Widely accepted as one of the finest Thai restaurants in town, Kin Khao is the more casual sister restaurant to owner Pim Techamuanvivit’s Nari in Japantown. Here, the menu skews more toward street food, so don’t skip dishes like the mushroom hor mok and fish sauce-infused Pretty Hot Wings, which do require getting your hands a little messy but are more than worth sacrificing a few extra napkins. Just be aware lunch hours are from 11:30 a.m. to 2 p.m." - Dianne de Guzman
