Sala Thai might be my new spot.
I'm a sucker for good, spicy thai, and i have been searching around Madison for my favorite spot.
I have had Bahn Thai, Ha-Long Bay, Lao Laan-Xang, Sa-Bai Thong, and Vientiane and i have to say this may be the best bang for your buck as well as the most flavorful.
The curry puffs are as good as i have ever had and you get 4 humungous puffs for 2.95. If you like spicy, go with the green curry, probably one of the best curries i have ever had.
Overall this place is worth the short (5-10 minute) drive from campus for how inexpensive it is. Most dishes run between 7-8 dollars, with a few above 9. All the appetizers are between 2-4 and you get a significant portion. You could easily come here with 4 people and spend 8 dollars each for a large amount of food. I look forward to returning
