Jasmine Thai Restaurant Description:
Thai restaurants abound in the medical center area, but Jasmin differs from its compatriots with its sweeter, more-mellow renditions of both classic and unique dishes. Translucent summer rolls are typical, with generous chunks of shrimp sharing space with shredded vegetables and rice noodles; ginger-spiked fishcakes are flavor-packed and only quasi-chewy; the Thai roll is deep-fried and includes marinated chicken. Standard Thai soups also grace the menu, but the more unusual suki soup includes chicken, beef and calamari with bean threads. Doctors in scrubs join savvy civilians in savoring the green mango salad---and some even spring for the dried shrimp, even if it does cost extra. Gang keowan, a spicy green curry with chicken, brings to mind New England chowder---just more exotically flavored with coconut milk. When it's in season, order the fresh mango with sticky rice, Thailand's quintessentially simple-yet-satisfying dessert.
