There's nothing rural about Thai Country Cafe's location; it's situated in the colorful, bustling environs of the U-City Loop, just down the road from the St. Louis city line. But the name does imply a casual, relaxed atmosphere that reminds patrons you don't have to dress up to enjoy exotic, ethnic cuisine. A big favorite among Wash-U students, Thai Country Cafe serves up traditional Thai specialties in a quick, laid-back style -- perfect for a short lunch hour or last-minute dinner stop. The restaurant's regulars love the khao laad nar gang dang, which pairs sliced meat with bamboo shoot, green and red pepper and sweet basil leaves, cooked in red curry paste and coconut milk, all over rice. The quick prep times and 50-plus menu choices also make Thai Country Cafe ideal for carry-out. And after you try Thai ''country-style,'' check out its sister restaurants inside the Loop -- Thai Gai Yang Cafe, Thai Pizza Co., and the more formal Thai Cafe.
