"This long-running Thai Town haunt no longer stays open until 4am (they close at 11pm), but we still highly recommend coming here during non-witching hours when you’ve got one friend in the mood for drunken noodles, and another in the mood for a salted turnip omelet. Ruen Pair's menu spans from takeout classics to more obscure Thai-Chinese dishes and there's rarely a miss among them. The smell of wok-sizzled herbs and spices hits you as soon as you step inside—always a good sign—so it's not surprising our favorite dishes here tend to be stir-fried and/or deep-fried. Get the sauteed morning glory stems, the crispy catfish with basil, and an order of their sweet-spicy fried egg salad." - brant cox, arden shore, garrett snyder, sylvio martins
