"With a giant menu full of Pan-Asian street foods and a lot of Malaysian specialties, Food Terminal makes decision-making difficult in the best way possible. You can land on anything—from the garlic butter crab fried rice to the honey-glazed fried shrimp with garlicky, housemade noodles—and it'll be delicious. The spacious, never-not-busy dining room is perfect for a team lunch with a colleague who is always blathering something about “exploring all options.” And it stays open until 11pm, so it makes a smart choice for when you need a casual dinner that doesn't taste like one." - nina reeder, jacinta howard, juli horsford
