Thai + Japanese Food
SriThai is another delicious Georgia chain restaurant celebrating the fusion of Thai and Japanese cuisine. From sushi hand rolls to a warming bowl of Tom Kha Gai, SriThai has no shortage of comforting East Asian dishes. Their extensive menu features classic Thai plates like comforting Massaman curry and pad see ew. However, if you crave sushi, they also offer a variety of specialty rolls and sashimi platters to enjoy. My favorite item to order is a big bowl of green curry paired with sweet Thai tea. Now, if you have a sweet tooth like me, their mango sticky rice always hits the spot.
Greek, Iranian, Turkish Food
Are you in the mood for a taste of the Mediterranean? Well, Opa! Gyros & Kabob is the perfect spot to indulge in savory Greek, Iranian, and Turkish dishes. This restaurant combines flavors of Iran and the Mediterranean islands to create a menu filled with delicious meals. For appetizers, I recommend their tangy dolmades drizzled with pomegranate sauce. I also love their Koobideh kabob wrap. It is packed with juicy meat, and the roasted lemon potatoes are fresh and herby. Also, if you love tea like me, make sure you try their fragrant rosewater sweet tea. Overall, any dish from Opa! Gyros & Kabob is a Mediterranean experience.
Cuban Food
Whenever I want a home-cooked meal away from home, I head over to D’Cuban, a cozy restaurant that brings the bold taste of Cuba right to Gwinnett. D’Cuban automatically transports you to the streets of Cuba with its colorful decor and welcoming ambiance. You also can’t go wrong with their delicious menu items, either. For a snack on the go, their freshly fried beef and chicken empanadas are perfectly crispy and stuffed with tasty filling. However, if you crave comfort in a bowl, their slow-roasted beef ropa vieja bowl paired with a tart and sweet passion fruit juice is sure to satisfy you.
Indian Food
If you want to nourish yourself with the spicy and rich flavors from Northern India, then you have to try Masti: Indian Street Eats. Not only do they serve popular Indian street snacks, but they also have full-on-plate meals. Their menu features an extensive list of the many diverse and delicious dishes that Northern India has to offer. My favorite item on their menu is the saag paneer, made with green vegetables cooked with fried cheese cubes and aromatic spices. When you pair it with garlic, cilantro naan, and a sweet and refreshing mango lassi, you are in for a flavorful experience!
