While Hudson's Pad Thai specializes in the eponymous dish - traditionally made with chicken, shrimp, bean sprouts, fresh lemon and ground peanuts - there's much more to the menu. Choose from red, yellow and green curries, with the spiciness adjusted to suit individual tastes, or something simple, such as coconut soup with shrimp. Authentic Thai touches (large framed pictures, scluptures and intricate tapestries) give the interior a dramatic feel. The restaurant is sizable, with 150-seat dining room and two banquet rooms. Thers's also a striking, 12-stool bar. Area residents will be pleased to know that from 5:00 to 9 p.m., Pad Thai offers delivery to the local Hudson area.
