| - This was the worst Thai Food that I have ever had in my life.
My boyfriend ordered Pad See Ew and it was full of tiny pieces of broken, overcooked noodles, (seriously....the longest noodle that we could find was about an inch long) TONS of grease, a few dried up pieces of chicken and what seemed like an entire bulb of raw garlic, roughly chopped into huge chunks.
To add insult to injury, it was served lukewarm, which is a miracle in itself, seeing as how we were the only people in the restaurant and we sat there and watched the cook hand the food to the server.
I ordered the Pad Prik King, my favorite dish, but what I received was definitely NOT Pad Prik King! Pad Prik King is an extremely flavorful and pungent dish that contains green beans, meat, fish sauce, basil, red curry paste and kaffir lime leaves. The sauce is always bright orange in color.
NONE of these things were in the meal that they served me....not even the green beans! I asked the server to make sure that this was, indeed, Pad Prik King, and she said that it was. But what was in front of me was a plate of mixed vegetables with greyish colored rubbery mystery meat served in a flavorless brown gravy---like the kind you would buy in a jar to put on mashed potatoes--- filled with huge chunks of the aforementioned rough chopped raw garlic. No fish sauce, no kaffir lime leaves, no fresh basil....nothing but meat and veggies in a brown, garlicky paste.
And mine, too, was served lukewarm.
Ugh!!!
