Lemon Grass is a Thai restaurant in West Philly popular with the Penn crowd. It has imaginatively named dishes on its menu such as "Young Girl on Fire" or "Evil Jungle Princess." I am a big fan of the curry dishes especially the Penang curry with peanuts and potatoes. The coconut lemon-grass soup with either chicken or tofu is extremely tasty. Also, the desserts such as fried bananas with coconut ice cream are worth saving room for. The restaurant is attractively decorated and the servers are very attentive. It's the best Thai restaurant in Philly that I've found, which admittedly lacks on Thai cuisine.
