| - Best Pad Thai ever! The hubby and I have a Thai (well most Asian foods really) addiction. Like we go at least once a week if not more. Our favorite Thai dish is Pad Thai. It's a good barometer for the restaurant. Decent Pad Thai = decent restaurant.
There was a fair amount of people dining on a Friday evening about a month ago. Luckily there was no wait to sit. It did seem to take awhile before our server greeted us and got our drink orders, but not an unreasonable time.
To start off we ordered Bpeek Gai Tod (crispy chicken wings tossed in sweet Thai chili glaze), Thai mimosa, and a Thai mule. The wings were large, crispy, hot, and yummy.
Our drinks were a good compliment to the appetizer.
For our entrees we ordered Dtom Yum Goong and of course, Pad Thai. The soup came out in the lit hot pot. There were plenty of shrimp and mushrooms. My nose was running so it was indeed both sour and spicy. Love that lemongrass.
I don't think we've devoured Pad Thai quicker than we did that night. We agreed as we were eating it, that it tied for first place if not beat our first choice Thai options back home in Austin. Authentic flavors and ingredients, the right amount of heat, meat, and veggies. The portion sizes on everything was enough that we were full. Maybe too full.
Would love to come back if ever we find ourselves in Scottsdale again.
