Weve lived many years in Los Angeles, the unquestioned Thai center-of-the-universe in the lower 48, where theres a Thai stand in every strip mall. Wan Fischer's Thai Cafe beats the jodhpurs off every other Siamese cookery in town! The padd thai is the most authentic that we've found here. For a change-of-pace appetizer with a kick, order the splendid Yum Nuah beef in lime juice and Thai chiles served with raw cabbage (the better to cool you, dears). And the green curry, when ordered with the rare nutty red rice is sublime. This summer they've been serving a lemongrass cooler as a refreshing drink that actually enhances each bite of food. Not cheap, not killer either. The servers aren't weird, just eccentric.hey!, that's the Ripple, sportsfans! Theyre more than helpful & gracious. Get to know Wan, she is the Grand Dame, now that Bangkok's Jarunee Balisari Butler has retired.
