I was so pleased to learn that Chanpen opened a new location 4 weeks ago and it is larger to accommodate more people with the same great quality of food.
The location is in the Fry's Food plaza, on the northeast corner of 48th Street and Baseline in Tempe. The atmosphere is open and clean, with more tables to accommodate parties small and large.
I ordered the Pad Thai lunch special for $7.95 and it came with soup, a veggie eggroll and a wonton crisp. It was, as expected, extremely good.
The staff is very nice and I had a chance to chat with one of the co-owners. All in all I hope that this place succeeds because it has the best Thai food in the Phoenix area.
