9Tastes Thai Cuisine

During a trip through Harvard Square, we came across this charming Thai eatery. We were wondering what type of place it could be when we noticed a brilliant blue awning with the name Nine Tastes, and while we were thinking what kind of place it could be, we noticed the menu. We went over the menu, which included veggie puffs, mango fried rice, spicy fish with basil, and lemongrass chicken, and there was no way we could say no. As we reached the underground restaurant, we were greeted by loud conversation from a primarily student population. In both dining rooms, soft, colorful lighting enhanced charm. The walls of the smaller area, which featured the bar, were covered in kitschy souvenirs. In the main area, mirror panels alternated with paintings of Thai scenes. Bangkok's Panja Lyman, who also co-owns.
