RESTAURANT REVIEW

Most chefs who spend time away from their kitchens suffer criticism. Andy Ricker is an exception, as whenever he is not standing in front of a hot stove he is scouring Thailand in order to learn more about the country's cuisine. Not surprisingly, Ricker's restaurant is like "no other Thai restaurant in the country," and the combination of a décor that's reminiscent of a shack in Thailand and dishes like fried catfish marinated in turmeric and sour rice and northern Thai spicy hand-minced water buffalo salad will make you feel like you are in Bangkok rather than PDX.
