The Thai Vegan menu includes fake shrimp (complete with pink patches), fake chicken and fish (both of which have convincing textures), and fake slices of pepper steak. That said, it isn’t the sophistication of vegetarian faux meats that makes the place so good. It’s amazing because the cooks really know what they’re doing, and they use quality ingredients. Both the red and green curries perfectly nail the traditional Thai balance. The rice served alongside it is an intriguing blend of red, purple and brown grains that requires no sauce to be satisfying. The soups feel purifying and have a way of pulling sweat from your pores. The Thai iced tea (yup, that’s vegan too) is like sipping Bangkok through a straw. (Alibi Staff, November 4, 2010) Community Reviews (1)
