Thai$$

Thai’s right for a ’burb with sea at the end of the street. When sun and surf are up, sit outside and enjoy well-packed diamond bags and dinky salmon rolls bathed in palm sugar and fish sauce. When clouds roll in instead of surf, retreat inside for signature massaman curry, rich and coconut creamy with three lamb cutlets and bonus meat chunks; or toothsome roast duck, nicely charred, with a tangy, well-balanced orange sauce. Justifiably popular, it offers a big menu for a big crowd. There’s one dessert, sweet roti, but who cares when another surf beckons?
