"Soup: Kao Soy This little Thai restaurant in the Richmond nails every element of a kao soy. Their rendition has zing from a squeeze of lemon, bouncy egg noodles, and a creamy yellow curry broth that’ll stick in your mind for weeks. You’ll have regrets about not ordering more even before you get to your last drop—all the more reason to return next time your heater decides to blow a fuse.
