The best doughnuts - period. But they are not in Cape St. Claire! They are in Annapolis on West Street almost downtown.

The donuts are the best in town made fresh and in traditional flavors such glazed, chocolate frosted, etc... The Thai Kitchen items are very good. The dining area is not fancy. Reminds me of an 80's fast food restaurant. This is place locals love.

Great food, speedy service, and familial enough for us to linger for a few extra minutes to chat. The donut and food pairing is always fun, too.

This is a whole in the wall joint. It's worth stopping by. The place only has a few tables, but most customers order takeout, so there is always a table available. The food is great. My coworkers all tell me that the pad thai is their favorite dish. My favorite dish here is the Drunken Noodles. However, You can't go wrong with either one. Definitely stop by to try this place. It's worth it.

We are now a regular here! This time we tried curry puffs and there were really good. It's my eldest's new favorite now. We ordered 4 main courses- what are the chances that all were superb? We ordered Pad Thai, which we usually do. Next time I have to remember not to add chicken, I like it that way. We also ordered 12) Koa Pad Kee Mao and 15) Pad Eggplants. We asked both to be spicy and they were both great. We took a chance and ordered 26) Kratim Pik Thai. This reminds me of Pepper Chicken fry on the Indian menu. It was great. Will order next time too.
