Best Thai in Seattle: Aroy Mak. That's a bold statement with all the Thai opportunities in the metro area but this is the place. Unlike most Thai restaurants the menu isn't pages long and focuses on vegetables, chicken and shrimp. Choices are Seattle Metro, South Lake Union, United States, Washington, West Coast
Breakfast, Lunch or Dinner: The Cottage Cafe & Fireside Lounge. Usually visit Pioneer Coffee but just finished skiing so looking for more calories and this place was a great choice.
