"For any Thai cravings in Mumbai, look to chef Seefah Ketchaiyo, whose namesake restaurant (a joint venture with her husband, chef Karan Bane) is influenced by her stints cooking in both Thailand and China. Order the papaya salad, duck rice, Isan grilled pork, and Thai curry with crispy roti. The restaurant also does an array of Japanese food, in case you need some udon or sashimi. If chef Ketchaiyo’s in the kitchen, ask if she’s feeling nice enough to make your table a Thai omelette stuffed with chicken or pork, an off-menu speciality." - Sumedh Natu
