Keo's Thai Cuisine- Located in Waikiki, Keo's has been around since 1977. Recognized by Newsweek and GQ magazines, to name two, Keo's has attracted celebrities, royalty, and the locals due to its wonderful food.

Start your meal off with an appetizer of Spring Rolls or Crispy Noodles; next try a bowl of Spicy Lemongrass Soup or a Green Papaya Salad; for a main entrée, the Cashew Nuts with Chicken or Eggplant with Fish might just be the answer. If you still have some room after all of that, desserts include mango Sorbet, Coconut Ice Cream or Flan, to name a few.

Keo's has a wide-ranging list of wine and cocktails plus various domestic and imported beers.

The décor is tropical but with a Thai flare, service is friendly and prices affordable.

Singha Thai Cuisine- Located in Honolulu, Singha's serves a mixture of modern-day, Thai, and Pacific-Rim cuisine.

For appetizers try a Lollipop Chicken Drumette plate or the Alaskan King Crab Cake, smothered in a Mango Salsa (fresh daily), this is a favorite. Any one of the many soups or salads next will offer a tasty delight; if you prefer something cooked in a Wok then the Spicy Shiitake Mushroom with Breast of Chicken will be a favorite for the main course. Even after a filling meal there is nothing like a light, refreshing taste of mango Sorbetto to finish off your evening at Singha's.

Singha's offers an extensive list of wines, beers, and exotic tropical drinks.

Appetizers of Satay Chicken served with house peanut sauce and cucumber sauce or Fried Tofu served with the house peanut sauce are two ways to get you in the mood for the rest of the meal. The Penang Curry- sweet peanut curry with string beans, zucchini, and red peppers is a favorite among the locals. Cashew Chicken with sautéed cashews, celery, and onions will delight the palette or a plate of Bangkok Fried Calamari with diced veggies and sweet chili sauce for the main course.

The food is very authentic and very reasonable in price; the atmosphere is very 'hip' with great music; and it is a BYOB restaurant.
