Green Papaya

My new favorite sushi: the green papaya roll from the new Oakley/Hyde Park restaurant of the same name. The mix of tempura shrimp, tuna, cream cheese, mango, crab topping and spicy sauce is delicious. From a CinWeekly review:

Sure, the decor is sweet. But it's the dishes with Green Papaya's signature touch that will be a hit with Thai fans at the recently opened Oakley eatery.

The huge menu features curries, noodle dishes and other specialty sauces as well as more unusual options, such as Som-Tum - a salad made with freshly sliced papaya. And this is the kind of dish that will keep Green Papaya here far longer than Bebe's Kitchen or Pasta Co., two places that previously occupied this same space on Wasson Road.
