Pad Thai = Heroin.

Totally addictive.

Don't start.

 

I'm a yellow or red curry chicken guy myself.

 

You may want to try Sum Yung Guy

 

Panang beef too...

 

Maybe it's slightly prosaic and overdone, but I love green chicken curry. When I cook Thai, that's what I make.

 

Every curry I eat I swear is the best one. Red curry, green curry, massaman, panang and then I try red again and think its the best!

 

Might be a little spicy for Peter.




Good one though.

 

Just don't order the green tea salad.

(OK,,, go ahead order it,
I dare you,
do you have babies,
have you ever changed a baby,
never again will I order the green tea salad.)

Lad Na is my favorite

My favorite at the local Thai place is Soy sauce noodles with Chicken, egg and broccoli.

Cafe Yen

When I lived in Thailand I would drink these like crazy. It is an iced coffee drink (no booze in it) that is super tasty and refreshing.

That is how I test Thai resturaunts, I ask for cafe Yen........"What is that?"........I know they are fakesters.

 

I had heard Thai food was spicy, but for years, every time I had Thai food and I requested it to be spicy, it failed to meet my expectations. Then the Thai-born wife of a co-worker told me that because I look so Caucasian, I was never going to get the real deal - so she gave me the password: "Thai hot". So if you too do not appear Thai, when they ask if you would like mild, medium, or hot, and you really do want to try hot, you just need to say the password.

I like to order:
TOM YUM GOONG soup, and either GAI GRA PAO (chicken in basil, chili, & garlic) or NEUA KRA-PRAW (beef in basil, chili, & garlic) as a main dish.

I asked the same lady where to find the best Thai food in the area, and she recommended the original Krung Thai on Winchester just South of Moorpark (just across 280 from Santana Row). http://www.originalkrungthai.com/ There are many other good ones in this area, though.

 

They're going to be pissed if there's no Pad Thai...

 

Yeah, That's kinda like bringing in Mickey D's without any Big Macs......

 

There's a restaurant i pass on the way to school called "Low Fatt Chow"


Lulz
