Dining room at Chaba Thai Bay Grill, Redondo Beach, CAWhile the South Bay has many good Thai restaurants, few are outstanding for either depth of regional cuisine or culinary invention. Chaba Thai Bay Grill is a standout for the latter, highlighted by the fried calamari dusted with green tea powder, and Thai-style osso buco---here called lamb shank Musman---paired with a delicate yellow curry, turmeric rice and Thai pickles. The restaurant occasionally gets a bit fanciful with its menu descriptions: the Thai bouillabaisse is a pretty standard though very good lemon grass and chile broth with seafood. More traditional dishes, like noodle stir-fries and eggplant with shrimp and basil, are available and similarly satisfying. The restaurant is beautifully decorated and offers a decent wine list, both factors that draw a young crowd that grooves to hip alt-rock.
