Back in the 1980s, Thai food wasn’t quite popular in the U.S. But Siam Cuisine made a bold start in Philadelphia’s Chinatown. You’ll spot it as the only place in the area advertising Siam Duck instead of Peking Duck. Siam Cuisine is BYOB, so as much as you want for as long as you want can make your Pad Thai even tastier.
The atmosphere is pleasant and cheerful and you’ll be treated with the hospitality Thai culture prides itself on. The lemongrass soup is a specialty, as is the stir-fried seafood. Any of the curries are good. Come here for a quick business lunch.
