I was stuck in Phoenix for the night and needed to find some dinner. I walked down the street from hotel room and headed towards a highly rated steakhouse. But, when I saw the prices and weighed my hunger - I thought better about it. Next door, I found Wild Thaiger which was also highly rated and seemed like a better choice. I was right!! I sat down at the bar and was quickly helped by the friendly waitress. I flipped through the menu and saw all the usual Thai fare - but one specialty stuck out to me... a spicy wild boar dish. I was in and the waitress double checked to be sure I was aware about the spiciness of the dish. Armed with a beer and water, I dove in for a fantastic feast. I didn't notice the sliced thai chilies that adorned the dish until I really dug in. Phew!! It was spicy and it was delicious!!! The wild boar appeared and tasted like tender slices of pork. The sauce was flavorful and the chilies gave it a great kick. The Thai girls in the kitchen were pleasantly surprised to see me finish the plate without suffering too much. In fact, I LOVED it.
I don't really spend much time in Phoenix, but I will revisit Wild Thaiger if I am near by.
