Bangkok 9

Probably the best Prawn Pad See Ew that I've ever had - including the street food that we had in Bangkok! The Pumpkin Curry was fantastic as well. This place seemed to be exclusively frequented by locals - and I can tell why!

Meal started with Tom kha, a coconut broth based soup. The flavor of the broth was quite good. But the soup was over loaded with slices of onions. The ratio of onion to anything else in the soup was 10 to 1. I picked them out and half the $10 bowl was empty. I do love onions, but this was extreme overkill. Tom kha is one of my favorite Thai foods and I eat a lot of Thai food, so it pains me to see a dish with potential destroyed to this degree.

I also had their prawns in a peanut sauce. The vegetables were slightly cooked The sauce over powered everything and was over applied. The prawns weren't fully cooked either. It was like a huge pile of goo. The sauce might be okay as a salad dressing but for a dish, just doesn't cut it. The sauce would have benefited from rice vinegar, soy and sesame oil. I had to pay extra for rice, which should come with the meal. I also had their Thai iced coffee, which was so sweet it was undrinkable. Overall service was very good.

Was only there once but the service was quick and friendly.

My family has gone to this restaurant while traveling into the area every year. It’s is consistently delicious and the flavors are the best. The best Thai food in the area, by far. Get the mango panang!
