Long Grain
Since 2009, Long Grain owners Bas Nakjaroen and Paula Palakawong have been blending Asian cuisines with local and seasonal ingredients. If you’re looking for an off-the-beaten-path menu inspired by Thai, Singaporean, Vietnamese, Indonesian, and Japanese flavors, this is a place that belongs at the top of your short list (whether you’re a local or not).
Foodies will enjoy scratch-cooked dishes reflecting Nakjaroen’s expertise, earning him recognition as a 2014 James Beard Award Semifinalist. And don’t worry if you have more of a simpleton’s palate (like me), you’ll still be obsessed with this spot. I can’t get enough of their Chicken Pad Thai or their Pad Seaw. (They’re also known for their Vegan options!)
