On another girls lunch excursion we made our way to Thai Emerald based on someone's previous experience and boy am I glad we did! The table started off with a round of Thai Teas (I'm no longer a virgin!) then we were served up some egg drop soup which was also delish. For the main course I went halfsies with a friend and we shared the pineapple friend rice with chicken and green curry with tofu. I totally get why the pineapple is the symbol for "Welcome" because the pineapple fried rice was delightfully welcomed to my palette and belly. Sooo yummy! The green curry was wonderful as well, but the fried rice simply stole the show. Another friend had the garlic stir fry, which she kindly let me try. It was like a bulb went off on my tongue, a garlic bulb that is. (See what I did there?) It was intensely flavored, without being unbearable. Service was quick and pleasant and the restaurant itself was squeaky clean which I'm always a fan of. Prices were reasonable and portions were generous. We all walked out with full bellies, satisfied taste buds and another solid place to add to our list of girls lunch out dates.
