Laughing Monk Cafe

Thai restaurant · Mission Hill

"Mission Hill isn’t really considered a destination dining neighborhood, probably because it gives a lot of people flashbacks to keg parties and games of pong where you accidentally chugged the water cup. But that’s a good thing if you’re looking for last-minute high-end sushi, because you can get it at the Laughing Monk Cafe without having to lie about being William H. Macy’s publicist to get a seat at the omakase counter. This small, casual place has both a Thai and a Sushi menu, and while the Thai food is definitely above average, it’s the sushi with nori cut to look like lace doilies that’s the real reason to come here. And even if you can’t get a day-of reservation at the sushi counter, you can do omakase at the table, too." - dan secatore
