Nicky's Thai Kitchen is a beautiful dining experience tucked away in the middle of downtown. I might spend as much time staring at the golden mirrored ornamental designs around me as I do the menu or talking with my friends, which is not to say that the quality of the food is anything less.
I am always impressed by their wide selection of curries, noodles, and appetizers. My favorite dish so far is the panang curry - the notes of lime, basil, and cilantro are soothing and comforting, the right mix of sweet and savory, perfect with a side of rice. Their appetizers are delicious as well - I recommend the deep-fried shrimp cakes which go well with the accompanying light cucumber sauce.
Just writing this review makes me want to go back when I get the chance to have the same exact thing as last time even though there's so many things on the menu I promise myself I'll try next time.
