"The find of the year for all those of you living south of Minnehaha Creek and I-494"  Dara Moskowitz Grumdahl

"Using fresh spices, roots, chile peppers, citrus and whatnot is actually a lot rarer in Twin Cities Thai food than you's imagine; many places cut corners with canned spices, or skip various unavailable herbs altogether. But once you taste Thai food made without these shortcuts, its like switching from an old black-and-white television to a technicolor film--the life and pop is almost too different to be believed." Dara Moskowitz Grumdahl

 In traditional Oriental medicine, it is believed the human body is made up of five essential elements. Associated with each of them is a category of flavour derived from natural foods. When the five elements are in balance, the body is in good health; when any are deficient or excessive; the harmony of the body is disturbed. One way to insure good health is to include in the diet a cuisine which uses a consistent balance of natural foods representing the five flavours: Salty, Sweet, Sour, Bitter (Green Leaf and all other vegetables to a lesser degree) and Pungent (Hot, Spicy). Because Thai cuisine utilizes all five, almost to an equal degree, it is perceived as a perfect health-enhancing cuisine.
