Green star Fish Cake Factory (Belltown)

Website

The chef at Fish Cake Factory in Belltown is a local heroine of Thai food: Vimonsri Wongjaraen, the longtime chef of Bai Tong (Bai Tong's Tukwila location, so the lore goes, was the favorite of employees of Thai Airways, who'd come from nearby Sea-Tac). The space, on a lonely stretch of Fourth Avenue, is basic but handsome, with big windows, hardwood floors, and lightbulbs with good-looking filaments. The assortment of fish cakes includes the usual (and tasty) tod mun, flaky garlic trout, spicy-sweet Indian yellow curry salmon with kernels of corn, a gummy but good vegetarian version made with taro, and lots more. The rest of the food here is a cut above your neighborhood Thai spot—try the extra-rich-and-thick massaman curry or the big pile of super-fresh garlic black pepper prawns. You'll probably have leftovers, and you'll probably drink the rest of the sauce out of the bottom of the take-out container.

Best damn Thai

We found this after venturing to Vashon and having our reservations cancelled at another restaurant. That was the best thing to happen, because May fed us the most inventive and most delicious Thai food we have ever had. The deep fried Thai watercress blew us away. The Pad Thai was clean, fresh and delicious. This is a beautiful restaurant and we will return, often.
