"Diners can feast on Thai street food dishes inspired by chef Dee Dee Niyomkul’s grandmother’s recipes at Tuk Tuk Thai Food Loft. Located at Brookwood Plaza, the sweet spot where Midtown and Buckhead meet, Niyomkul whips up a robust menu of comforting appetizers like vegetable samosas, crispy roti, and satay kai (chicken skewers). Try entrees of sauteed shrimp or pork, Thai-style chicken fried rice, and the fried rice and sausage medley kao pad goon chiang. Everything is easily shared, which is recommended. If Niyomkul’s name sounds familiar it’s because she also owns of Chai Yo Modern Thai and is part of a multi-generational family of restaurant owners in Atlanta. Fun fact: The restaurant is named for a tuk tuk — a three-wheeled rickshaw found in Bangkok." - Carolyn Desalu
