E@T 2
Locally sourced Thai comes to Decatur
225 E Ponce De Leon Ave, Ste 100; Decatur; 404.963.0190
Shrinking a good thing down to lesser size doesn't mean it
has to lose potency; the Whopper Jr. still packs a meaty
punch, the very line you use getting out of a chilly pool.
Condensing their menu and square footage for their new
in-town spot, E@T 2.
Begat by the 80-seat Gainesville orig, E@T 2's invading the
former Thai Me Up plot to establish a foothold where real
people will actually go; the 35-seat wood-floored space
boasts red & blue/grey banquettes below tall cloths splashed
with abstract art, large white cabinets ensconcing wine
bottles, and framed pictures of Thai desserts, trumping your
mother's claim that your seventh-grade school photo was just
"the sweetest". The whole damn menu, which retains only the
prime dishes from the original's, is locally sourced,
drawing meat & produce from Decatur and fresh seafood from
Lawrenceville; apps range from the lemongrass fish cake w/
cucumber dip, to sweet & sour crispy fried chicken bites, to
marinated wonton-wrapped blanket shrimp, which really wishes
people would just call it by its normal-person name, Prince
Michael Shrimp II. For more resolute consumption, you can
toss beef, chicken, shrimp, or all three into spicy basil
fried rice, noodle dishes like Pad See Ew (brown-sauced,
stir-fried wide rice noodles w/ broccoli, sprouts & egg), or
white-rice Thai curries (red, yellow, Masaman, or Panang);
they're also dishing specials like Siam Chicken
(batter-fried over sweet & sour sauce, w/ cashews &
pineapple) and the spicy sautéed filet fish, sea scallops,
shrimp & squid Sea Madness -- named for the poorly produced
government propaganda flick to discourage people from
getting stoned at the beach, once people getting stoned
proved inevitable.
After all that's wrapped, 2'll happily fatten you up with
fried ice cream, mango sticky rice (w/ fresh mango & w/
sweet coconut milk), or the wonton-wrapped, honey-/ground
peanut-topped fried banana, which is exactly what you have
to avoid while trying to perk your boy up with some warming
rays post-pool.
They'll have their beer/wine license in about two weeks,
serving bottles of domestics, plus Thailand's Singha and
Chang beer; check them out and see the menu and EatAtThai.com:
