"The Flamingo outpost of this longtime Thai destination delivers massive portions and bold flavors emblematic of the restaurant’s reputation: whole U15 wild prawns are deep-fried to a golden brown and cloaked in a delicate garlic‑pepper sauce that lets the sweet shellfish shine, while thick khao soi noodles arrive topped with fried duck slices for an indulgent, fatty flavor bomb. Housed in a space that still shows traces of its prior life, the spot retains the lavish, crowd-pleasing approach to Thai cooking that has long drawn devotees, and the original Sahara location is expected to reopen after a lengthy renovation." - Janna Karel
