"Much like Fleetwood Mac’s Rumours or season one of “Riverdale,” this all-day strip mall spot in Bitter Lake has no skips. They keep dishes simple here, and it pays off. You won’t find eight different curries, but a condensed coconutty trio of green, yellow, and panang perfection. Spice levels are already locked in, with a DIY chili caddy ready to make you cry. But the most valuable perk is that order envy ceases to exist. Lunch prioritizing succulent grilled khao man gai yang will be as soul-fulfilling as dinner involving a sticky pile of the pad thai special." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley
