Somehow, Chadaka Thai is easy to pass by, but the flavorful food and innovative drinks make it a place worth hunting down and checking out. \r

It's my favorite of the owner's three restaurants, especially because I can make it here for happy hour! The discounted drink and appetizer menus is always unexpected and delicious, and it all ends up being very reasonably priced when you split the bill between a few friends. \r

I recommend the drunken noodles, pineapple shrimp fried rice (NOT overly sweet!), the jungle curry, and the catfish. As for parking, if the closest lot on Palm fills up there are about 10 more within a mile radius--just drive a block or two!
Pros: Good food, innovative drink menu & a hip, casual atmosphere
Cons: Might need a reservation for dinner
