| - So, let me tell you about Soda Bun Thai Food. This was my first experience eating Thai food and I had been literally dying (on the floor, clutching my chest) to try it. So, while at work one day, I looked up places close to my job and came across Soda Bun and they had really good reviews and a check-in offer for a free Thai iced tea and that pretty much made up my mind. I called ahead since I wanted to dine in but only had a thirty minute lunch and the woman on the phone asked if I could there in about 6 to 10 minutes I said yes but didn't get there until a little after 10 minutes and expected my food to be in a to-go container but to my surprise it was plated and waiting for me! I was literally flabbergasted, the table was set up so cute and my heart melted.
I ordered the lunch special drunken noodles Thai because after doing my Yelp research, I determined that was where I wanted to start. I've since tried pad Thai and I much, much prefer drunken noodles. The lunch special portion just right the right size as I ate enough to fill me up and still had a bit to take back with me to work. It also comes with a spring roll and I'm not a huge spring roll fan but this one was great. Boy, it was HOT. I didn't know that you could specify the level of heat you wanted so I didn't and my mouth was on fire. It was like a deep burning heat in my mouth that I wish I had prepared myself for because I like heat but this was something else. I was sweating, lol. The sweet, concerned waitress kept bringing me more water because I'm sure she could tell I had literally bitten off more than I could handle. I'm not sure if it was tap water but it didn't taste like Arizona tap water so I was thankful for that. Thank God I had redeemed my check-in because that Thai iced tea held me down. It was sweet but not overbearingly so like some others I've tried. In spite of how hot it was, I could not stop eating. It was so flavorful and delicious, I was instantly on a Thai food kick and honestly, Soda Bun has been the best thus far. Five stars across the board - for the food, the atmosphere, and the hospitality. I'll definitely be back.
