Khao Pad (Fried Rice) – 4
This is so good. It’s different from your typical fried rice. The flavor is sweeter and the majority of the vegetables are bell peppers and onions. I ate most of it at dinner but still had enough for a side dish the next day. The only thing I didn’t love was the texture of the tofu. I’m just not a fan of soft tofu. I really prefer firm or even extra firm. But that’s probably not a deal breaker for most. I would definitely order it again, but I’d ask for extra veggies instead of the tofu next time.
Chiang Mai Curry Fries- 3
I was super excited about these mostly for their name. I’ve actually been to Chiang Mai! Yes I’m very worldly. 😉 Anyway, I thought I knew what I’d be getting but again, very different from your typical curry fries. Important to know that these were pretty spicy. And they didn’t have that little friendly red asterix that warns those of us with more sensitive spice palettes like they do on other items of the menu. And I really would have liked some kind of dipping sauce. Not only is dipping a good time, but these just needed something extra for flavor purposes and to dial down the heat. Our server actually tried to steer us in a different direction when we asked about them saying there were better things on the appetizer menu. Now, these weren’t bad at all, but next time I’ll take his advice and try one of the other delicious sounding choices. Hmmm maybe the spring rolls… I’m hungry already! 🙂
