"Opened in the fall on the Upper West Side, this Thai restaurant initially featured moo krata, a tableside hot pot and barbecue, but removed the grills after neighbors in the building complained that the exhaust system was too loud, in an effort to respect the neighborhood. It has since shifted to focus on Thai dishes like tum khao pod salad with sweet corn, salted duck egg, dried shrimp, tomatoes, long beans, and peanuts in a chile-lime dressing, beef shank “kra-pao,” and khao soi chicken with egg noodles. Co-owners Chidensee Watthanawongwat, Kitiya Mokkarat, Supatta Banklouy, and Nate Limwong are behind the restaurant." - Nadia Chaudhury
