    SD: Celadon Fine Thai Cuisine

    the other night i decided to visit an old friend’s restaurant.  Mr. Alex Thao of Celadon Fine Thai Cuisine. he’s a bit of a legend in the restaurant scene in San Diego.  his mother does menu, runs the kitchens, and adds that special Thao touch.

    saturday I stopped by for the “crispy duck salad.”  Celadon is a beautiful restaurant.  distractingly beautiful.  i caught myself dreaming to have something similar to this one day.  the color scheme is simply black and white.  the furniture is classic-fresh.  the music playlist set a lounge-urban feel.

    with all the impeccable ambiance stuff said, Mother Thao’s food is wonderful.  the menu items are not super-servings, but portioned just right.  the food is balanced, light, and uniquely Mother Thao’s.  have a bottle of wine or a drink and enjoy w/your dearest friends and family.
