"The original location for what’s becoming a mini-empire, Zaab Zaab offers compelling Thai cuisine from chef Kannika Moi Kittipinyovath: Don’t miss dishes like larb ped udon that boasts not only minced duck, but also tidbits of skin and liver, making the dish multi-textured and delightfully rich and spicy, spiked with a healthy dose of chiles. There’s also a papaya salad with pickled black crab, which adds crunch and a funky flavor." - Melissa McCart
