Welcome to a wonderful new lunch place right across the street from the Maine College of Art. The owners of Sengchai Thai Cuisine (on Forest Avenue) have opened up a new Thai buffet. The lunch buffet, at $8.50 is an incredible value, considering what's available. I had several varieties of sushi, spring rolls, tom yum soup, and a variety of tofu, chicken, fish, and beef dishes -- all excellent. It's a pleasant comfortable place.

And the "but": Like any buffet, it's much too easy to overeat, and with the array of choices here, that's especially tempting. So, only head to 511 Congress Street if you've plenty of self control.

Do support our local businesses -- and this is one of them!
