I don't know much Thai, but have been going to a little place in Burbank, Season Thai Cuisine, on 166 E Orange Grove 91502, safe area and lots of free muni parking. Great "hot and sour" soup (tom yum?), a little duck salad, great satay and curry lunches (neither exactly Thai but what the heck). Terrible pad thai noodles, everyone agrees. I'd be interested in a more informed opinion on the quality of the food there, someone with a better Thai-calibrated scale than I have! J.
