I like Asian and I like spicy, therefore I really like Thai. The best I've had in the south is Lek's Taste of Thailand in Montgomery. The location in the strip mall next to Faulkner University on the Atlanta Hwy. I had a naturalized German immigrant in one of my classes. His brother is a 5 star chef and, like all real chefs, visited the kitchen when he ate at Lek's. He came out and said "that is the real deal back there". Excellent food and service. I especially like the red curry chicken medium spicy. Great lunchtime value meal. Soup, spring roll, entre and drink for a tad more than the cost of a Mcd's value meal.
