| - I don't know why I do this to myself. There are only two Thai restaurants I've ever enjoyed in this city, and the rest are usually awful.
I came here for some quick noodles before meeting a friend. I ordered the Thai Spicy Noodles and was just... let's put it this way. I'm not angry, I'm disappointed. Actually, I'm a bit angry, but mostly in myself for making the same dumb mistake again.
The noodles were those wide, flat rice noodles, which I ordinarily love. The problem was, there was so much sauce, that they were super slippery and I couldn't stab or scoop them with a fork. Wait, SCOOP with a fork? Yeah, they were also so torn apart that there wasn't one noodle that was over 2 inches long. Most came in about 1. I was pretty hungry, so this was ridiculously annoying for me. Eventually, I flagged the server and asked for chopsticks, and YES, I know that you don't eat fried noodles with chopsticks in Southeast Asian cuisine, but these were impossible to pick up otherwise.
When I was able to get more than one noodle at a time into my mouth, I found that parts of the dish were cold. Not cooled down... COLD. The place was busy and frankly, I had places to be and very little faith that they would improve on my meal so I didn't send it back. I ate as much as I could (with great difficulty) in the time frame I had and just left the rest.
Not sure why it was so busy, maybe they're better at other dishes, but I won't be going back.
