Giggling Squid - Wimbledon

You're walking past the usual Wimbledon suspects when you spot Giggling Squid tucked into High Street. Push through the door and you've got something genuinely good: this is proper Thai done right, the sort of place where they take their curries seriously and your pad thai isn't just noodles tossed in a wok. The room's got a warm, buzzy energy—full of locals who've worked out that you don't need to trek into town for decent Southeast Asian food. Dishes are authentic without being po-faced about it, and they'll turn up the heat if you ask them to.
