"Bring your favorite person to Songkran Thai Kitchen, because the little packed-in tables means getting up close and personal. The small Uptown spot is buzzing every night of the week, so make a reservation ahead of time, or hope for walk-in bar seats. Wherever you sit, plan to spend some quality time with yellow curry and steaming beef pad thai (and your date, too). And Songkran's intimate feel seeps out onto the glittering patio, too." - gianni greene, chelsea thomas
