	montrealfood.com: Reviews >> Chao Phraya
		Last night at Chao Phraya, the fancy Thai restaurant on Laurier Avenue, I realized that this is the way to enjoy these ethnic eateries with menus that have over 150 selections: select a food category, and explore it in depth.
		As so often happens in Thai places, dishes are shared, and one ends up with a food orgy: the chicken flirts with the shrimp, the crab has its leg under the cow, while the duck's juices have blended with the sweat of the fish.
		I have been to Chao Phraya about six times since its opening in 1988, and although it has always been excellent, last night's monozootic choice proved to be a winner.
