DOWNTOWN. Ask around, and you'll quickly discover that Wild Ginger is a definite Seattle favorite. The restaurant that introduced the satay bar to the US also welcomes an eclectic mix of business people, families, and celebrities. Fragrant Duck is the signature dish, but Pow Wok Lamb and Drunken Quail are excellent choices as well. The lively atmosphere is made even better by friendly servers and live jazz, which is a Monday night specialty. |

Description:
DOWNTOWN. When it opened, this much-celebrated Thai restaurant took the city by...er, storm. Its exotic flavors, a mix of sweet and sour, salt and heat, fostered a new appreciation for Asian cuisine, especially dishes done with such skill and finesse. The driving force behind it all is Bo Kline, a Bangkok-born chef who takes authenticity to new heights and combines the traditions of peasant cooking and palace cuisine. Bo provokes palates with her takes on chicken coconut soup, pad thai, and miang kum (spinach wrapped morsels that explode with flavor). She also enlivens everything from chicken in green curry to lemongrass pork tenderloin and three-flavor fish. Bo's approach to fried bananas and homemade coconut ice cream also draw raves, and a huge selection of fragrant teas makes for great sampling. A must-try all the way around! |
