Originally on the other side of the street, Phao Thai has been welcomed back after a hiatus next door to the Japanese restaurant Sen. Phao wows guests with dishes like green curry with chicken and eggplant, a Thai salad of grilled beef, and crispy tamarind duck, and classic fried banana dessert. The place has a lounge-y feel to it and an often hip-looking crowd, especially late nights, when there is an occasional D.J.
