The only requirements are that the price be moderate and that my girlfriend who isn't a fan of fish and is allergic to tomatoes can eat. Thanks!

It's at 3811 Canterbury Road in Baltimore, 410 366-1484. I've eaten indian food all over the world, including India, and this place never ceases to please on all levels -- quality, presentation, service, atmosphere. It is easily the best Indian restaurant I've been to in my life. I'm a former professional chef and have been a food writer for 22 years, so I'm damn hard to please. But Ambassador never fails.

Mon Nov 02 13:27:20 -0800 2009 5149828 75215 hungry_fox 1 5149937 For Thai food, Nava Thai and Ruan Thai, both in Wheaton, are very good. For Indian, we like Spice Xing and Bombay Bistro in downtown Rockville. Probably the best Indian in MoCo is Passage to India in downtown Bethesda, but that may be outside your travel zone.

Mon Nov 02 15:51:28 -0800 2009 5149937 18274 DanielK 1 5150107 Ruan Thai in Silver Sping / Wheaton (nr. Georgia and University). They do have a tendency to cut back on the heat, so if you like your Thai food spicy, make sure you ask for it, or some dishes might come out a bit sweet.

Tue Nov 10 10:53:01 -0800 2009 5149628 1123354 deeksjr 2 5170600 I've always found Thai Farm to be bland - I'd call it the worst Thai I've had in Montgomery County (although it's a close race with Tara Thai). Pretty dining room though. Tue Nov 10 11:57:44 -0800 2009 5170360 132385 reiflame 3 5171135 I agree with reiflame that Thai Farm is not very good. Nava Thai and Ruan Thai are the best, and Jasmine Thai on 355 is pretty good. Tue Nov 10 15:27:59 -0800 2009 5170600 1098580 foodtrip 1 5170558 We live in Olney and very much enjoy Pana Thai in Derwood at Muncaster mill and Redland road. We also like Ruan Thai in Wheaton.
