Show Recently Reviewed Spicy Thai There's plenty of spice for your buck at this Thai restaurant in Provo. Most dishes cost around $8, refreshingly less than other Thai places around. We loved the variety of curry dishes offered, but our favorite dish was the Pad Briaw Wan, a Thai sweet and sour dish made with battered chicken and vegetables. You'll find all your favorite Thai dishes here, and all main dishes come with steamed rice. Our portions were large enough to leave some leftovers. You get to choose your own level of spice, but be warned: The "hot" is plenty hot, so "daring" might be downright incendiary. 3368 N.

Her dish is Macadamia Tilapia with White Chocolate Beurre Blanc, and it's worth a try. It's sweeter than you would expect for a fish entree, and rather mild, but the sauce is creamy and flavorful and the macadamia nuts add a nice texture. A half portion is enough to fill a hungry person, so order the full if you feel like sharing. The dish comes with broccoli plus your choice of side and salad. 1261 S. 800 East, Orem, Iteview Red Deli Where: 2250 N. University Pkwy.

Red Deli's fries are thick-cu- t and seasoned with salt and black pepper. They're good but because they're so thick you'll have to wait a while for them to cool. You also can order cheese fries, mozzarella sticks and a few fruit smoothies. On top of it all, Red Deli delivers for free. Make it your next lunch. Don't worry about the funny name the cooking tastes fine here, especially the Taiwan-styl- e shaved ice. For $4, it comes in a large bowl covered in condensed milk, syrup and fresh fruit. It tastes far better than any slushy beverage you can find on a street corner. Cooking Taste Right serves a selection of Chinese and Mongolian dishes, some familiar and some less so. We liked the Mongolian Huushuur, which is a meat and vegetable wrapped in a pastry and fried. d We also liked the Chinese-influence- Sacha Chicken, served on rice.
