"Ruen Pair has been a stalwart in Thai Town for more than a quarter century for good reason. It’s long been a delightful late-night hangout, with dishes inspired by the central and northeast regions of Thailand. Some standouts include the papaya salad with raw crab, shrimp dressed in spicy Thai seafood sauce, and fried egg with salted turnip, all best paired with a glass of frosty beer. The stewed pork leg over rice is another menu highlight for those in the know." - Kat Thompson
