Sometimes I wish that the only cuisine that existed was Asian. I mean, is anything else really necessary? As an Upper West Sider, I have committed to a handful of secret nosh spots on my side of town that lie outside of the trendy constraints of, say, SoHo—and Thai Market is the best of the bunch. From the moment I walked in and inhaled the delicious aromas wafting out of the kitchen, I was a goner: the food is made with pure passion, the lighting is romantic, and the service is tops. My favorite dish, the chicken pad Thai, goes beyond extraordinary, and the little dishes are the biggest indulgence—a must-try is the chicken dumplings with ground meat and peanuts. Although I don’t know Thailand in New York City below the 96th Street subway stop, I can confidently say that Thai Market is the best pad Thai that the upper west side has to offer.
