Camile Thai Pearse Street

You're walking down Pearse Street after a day around Trinity and the smell of lemongrass and chilli hits you properly. This spot's part of the Irish-owned Camile chain, but don't let that put you off – they've figured out how to do Thai food without watering it down for timid palates. The green curry actually has a kick to it, and their pad thai doesn't taste like it's been swimming in ketchup. It's nothing revolutionary, but when you want reliable Thai that won't leave you disappointed, this does the job. The location's handy if you're in the city centre, and they're open late enough for when those post-pub cravings hit.
