Among the plethora of Thai eateries in this city sits Bua Thai, a quiet little spot just at the cusp of Yorkville.
The atmosphere is typical Thai, some silk here, some vases there, a couple of Buddhas thrown into the mix and the servers are ingratiating and kind. Unlike most Thai restaurants that I've tried in this city, the dishes are distinct from one another and are quite fresh.
The eggplant is to die for and the broccoli with Tofu is my favorite dish.
The restaurant offers affordable take-out, and delivery and is even more pleasant to sit inside.
