Pai Kin Kao

Pai Kin Kao on River Street serves Thai food a short walk from Central Square. Curries run from green and panang to massaman, while khao moo dang puts barbecue pork over rice. Fried rice and noodle dishes give you other ways to build a meal, and the menu also makes room for miso ramen alongside the Thai cooking.

There are separate lunch and dinner menus, so check the one for your visit before deciding what to order. A curry with rice is a straightforward place to start; a couple of different dishes make more sense if you are sharing. The restaurant offers dine-in service, pickup and delivery from its Cambridge address at 80 River Street.
