"This counter-service restaurant in North Loop has dishes you won’t find anywhere else in Austin. P Thai focuses on labor-intensive, regional Thai specialties, including the signature khao man gai, which probably started cooking before your morning alarm went off. Chicken anchors the menu, but you’ll also find crispy pork belly, a few fiery bowls of Thai noodle soup, and an incredibly refreshing pig tongue salad. Start with the salad and order a khao man gai combo to avoid making the tough decision between the poached and fried varieties. Then start planning your next visit for a bowl of boat noodles or sukiyaki." - nicolai mccrary
