PILI PILI may seem a bit rough around the edges, but its unmistakable Thai restaurant aesthetic is hard to resist. The menu presents Thai classics reinterpreted for local palates while staying true to their roots. Its signature pu phat phong curry features creamy crab meat folded into a rich, aromatic curry sauce that pairs wonderfully with warm white rice. The vividly acidic and spicy tom yum soup is tasty, but the khao pad tom yum fried rice steals the show. The deliberately vintage interior recreates the feel of a local Thai dining eatery in Busan. Now, add a cocktail, and you have a miniature Thailand at your table.
