Thai Idea Vegetarian

Vegetarians and vegans rejoice: This popular Thai restaurant is entirely meat- (and fish sauce) free. The space is casual, but comfortable, with dark wood booths and dim lighting. Though the menu focuses on vegetables, there are also plenty of meatless substitutes for chicken, shrimp, catfish, duch, lamb, and beef. The faux-meat skewers, samosas, and “wing bombs” (deep-fried veggie-chicken wings) are popular appetizers, while the curries—from pumpkin to fish-free-”seafood”—are recommended mains.
