Typhoon has been my family's favorite source of Thai cuisine since we moved to Portland almost 10 years ago. It was the first restaurant we visited upon arrival, and it has been the place we brought all our out-of-town visitors to the moment they get of the plane. The pad thai is, of course, a must-have, but if you're in to spice, I reccommend the Curry Roma. Also, no Typhoon meal is complete without Miang Kum, a delicious DIY appetizer: spinach leaves with assorted toppings, including lime, shrimp, dried coconut, and Bo's special sauce.\r

But the real fun in dining at Typhoon comes with experimentation: make it a goal to try everything on the menu! I promise it's all wonderful.
Pros: GREAT authentic and original food, comfortable atmosphere.
Cons: Parking, prices a little high for students
