The Details: Ruan Orchid is a Thai restaurant on Northgate Street, with a menu covering the full range of Thai dishes in a setting that is calm and unshowy. It is a consistent performer in a city where Thai food is not overrepresented, and it suits a quieter evening when you want something fragrant and well-spiced. Booking is advisable at weekends.
