The Dish: Centara Delivers What Its Menu Promises

Exploring local restaurants, one dish at a time.

It's been a while since we checked in at Centara, Stony Brook's Thai restaurant. Patch stopped by Thursday night for dinner and here's what the restaurant delivered.

The Dish: Sweet and Sour Shrimp ($11.95)

What's Inside: Enough shrimp for one person, prepared with a Thai sweet and sour sauce, combined with vegetables including carrots, broccoli, and onions and accompanied by a side of rice.

Eat This Because: The menu promises the sweet and sour shrimp is "light and not too sweet," and what you order is exactly what you get. It's a balanced dish perfectly sized for one person.

Side Dish: The tom kha kai soup ($3.95) is a great option if you want the flavor of Thai food without the spice for which the cuisine is frequently known.
