Latitude Eight Thai Grill
Thai
Chandler, Az - 11 W. Boston St., Suite 5 - 480-722-0560 - $$
Owner David Fliger, along with his mother, Nicha, both from Thailand, run this authentic Thai favorite. Start with the tofu spring rolls, the chicken satay or the Thai beef salad. Don’t fill up too much, though – unlike a lot of places, the entrées here don’t get outshined by small plates. We love the green seafood curry and the seared ahi with Phuket sauce. For dessert, the coconut-battered fried plantains with kaffir lime syrup are melt-in-your-mouth good. Takes reservations. website: latitude-eight.com
