I didn't give My Thai, Mount Vernon's new Thai restaurant, much chance to survive until I ate there.
Basement restaurants by their nature don't have much curb appeal. Add to that the competition: Thairish in the same block (true, it's mostly carry out), Thai Landing -- almost a Baltimore institution -- farther north on Charles, and Ban Thai just to its south.
