Omnivore - Cliff’s Top 10 Favorite Restaurants Countdown: Number 7
Spoon has blown all other Thai restaurants in Atlanta out of the water.
Spoon has blown all other Thai restaurants in Atlanta out of the water. Although its menu is a bit limited compared to others, the curry sauces have no equal for their complexity and fiery heat (unless you specify “mild”). I go to the East Atlanta location, but the original is in the Westside.
Favorite dishes: My favorite here is the Massaman curry to which I add mixed seafood or chicken. The tofu steak is my favorite special. 749 Moreland Ave., 404-624-4713. 768 Marietta Street. 404-522-5655. www.spoonatlanta.com.
We will be counting down Cliff’s Top 10 Favorites every day between now and Oct. 21, the day our Food Issue 2009 launches. Check back tomorrow for Number 6.
