From the lush backyard garden to the elegant indoor dining rooms, the atmosphere at Bhan Thai is one of Memphis' best. Factor in the sophisticated seafood dishes, the fiery curries and the piquant lemongrass specials, and it's no wonder continues to rack up awards since its 2002 opening. Start with the satay appetizer (slices of marinated chicken grilled on skewers, served with the addictive peanut sauce and cucumber salad). Move on to the masaman curry or the drunken seafood combo (squid, mussels and shrimp, sautéed with veggies and basil in a blistering hot sauce) - guaranteed to heat up the night. If you're dining to impress and the weather cooperates, be sure to make a reservation for the patio on Friday or Saturday nights, when live acoustic music is performed.
"For a tasty kick in the pants, go for Bhan Thai's Spicy Old Man, a mix
of eggplant, bell peppers, onions, basil, and a secret sauce. It's a
dish - on a menu with many excellent dishes - that turns casual diners
into obsessives."
