Twist was still kicking on Friday night, even though it was sickeningly cold out and in spite of the bad news about Pigall's. We had a few rounds of petite bites with a few rounds of drinks. The short and sweet version: the mango drink is delicious and so is the croque monsieur.Saturday night I tried Thai Cafe on Ludlow for the first time. Don't confuse it with the Delight T
hai Cafe in Montgomery, which appears to be closed forever and ever. The Thai Cafe in Clifton is an Asian restaurant dressed up in art-deco duds. I had the Pad Thai with tofu, which is sort of like getting ice cream. Even when it's mediocre, run-of-the-mill ice cream, it's still fantastic. The noodles were cooked just right, but it was all a bit greasier than I would have liked. The Thai Cafe was a cut above mediocre, and I'd recommend it to someone in the neighborhood for a movie or some shopping.A source that I trust tells me that Ruthai's in Mount Lookout serves up the best Thai food in the city. Agree? Disagree? I haven't tried it myself, but it's on my hit list.

I haven't been to Thai Cafe in over a year but the last 2 times I ate there I thought the chicken was a bit dry & tough.
Sad to hear about Delight Cafe... I heard it was good and wanted to try it.
Note: RuThai's is closed Mondays.
Ruthai's is good
Tan Thai downtown (lunch only) is better.
Have not been to the recently-opened second location of Tan Thai in Springdale yet, but they serve lunch and dinner
