| - This is my second review of Papaya Thai. The first was brutal, I'd ordered Phad Thai, a personal favorite, and got a mush of cooked carrot and cilantro over noodles that were to the point of becoming paste. I was really disappointed, as they are the only thai place remotely close to my house.
However, today I woke up feeling rather brave and hungry. It's been several months, so I ventured back and ordered the same dish. this time making sure to ask them to hold the carrots and cilantro. And lo and behold, my dish was tasty. It was sooo much better, I almost suspect it's under new management, or perhaps a different chef. It's still not one of my top picks, but the service was good, the wait was short, and I was able to enjoy one of my favorite dishes without driving an hour to get it.
Overall, I'm both surprised and pleased by the difference. Whatever changes they've made since my last visit were definitely for the best, and if they're permanent, I wouldn't hesitate to go back.
