Thank you again Zagat!

Omigosh I can hardly believe it! Rick Nelson says that Zagat has listed True Thai as one of Minneapolis' Top Ten restaurants. I don't know why I'm surprised — I've got the award hanging on the wall. I guess I should have read the letter that came with it!

Who got the top rankings in the annual Zagat "America's Top Restaurants" guide ($15.95) in the Twin Cities?

The top 10 food rankings (in order, from highest to lowest) are:

• La Belle Vie
• 112 Eatery
• Restaurant Alma
• Lucia's Restaurant
• Vincent
• Manny's Steakhouse
• Heartland
• Oceanaire Seafood Room
• 20.21
• True Thai

OK, maybe we are not first but we are on the list. All of these restaurants are famous in the Twin Cities. True Thai is very honored that Zagat thinks we belong on a list with these outstanding restaurants. I'd like to do better than #10 but for those of you who do not know, #9 is Wolfgang Puck's restaurant.

But next year, True Thai will do better. Anna will have her entire restaurant staff working out at Los Campeones gym, training to beat Wolfgang Puck.
