  • I'm spoiled just a bit. I like Thai food and my girlfriend is Thai. So I'm down here in Surprise, AZ and praying Yelp can help me find some tasty food for dinner during the week. I must say other reviews of Tom Yum are pretty accurate. The food here was delicious. Honestly, when you see sticky rice and mango as a dessert option at any Thai restaurant chances are the food is going to be some level of authentic. The cheap crappy places don't take the time to prepare sticky rice desserts. Anywhoo, I made the mistake of ordering a lemonade to drink before I actually browsed the menu. Unfortunate repercussion of leaving 0* weather for 80* weather...I was thirsty and in a hurry to consume some refreshing liquid. If I ever return I will certainly try the Thai iced tea. I enjoyed a lot of that when traveling around Thailand a couple years ago. It's delicious. After finally opening the menu and regretting jumping at the lemonade I noticed there was more than just Thai in the menu. There was some Vietnamese and some Chinese mixed in. Honestly I think that's more of a good sign as there is a lot of Chinese heritage in Thailand and Vietnam is a neighbor. To get that combination you're looking at Bangkok or a little to the northeast. Good food there. After mulling over the menu for a bit I opted for the panang curry with pork. When confronted with the dreaded "how spicy" question I had to play it safe and go mild. There is seldom any consistency from one restaurant to the next when it comes to levels of spice. When in doubt play it safe, and occasionally you'll be pleasantly surprised. Having been to Thailand (north, central, and south) I know that not all Thai food is hot and spicy. A lot of it is quite savory. Behold the mild panang curry! With just enough spice to know it's there (like a spicy chicken sandwich from Wendy's) you can capture the wonderful sweet nature of panang curry. I had planned on eating half and ordering dessert. It was so delicious that I wound up finishing all of it. Now back to the sticky rice and mango. This is quite possibly my girlfriend's favorite dessert on the planet. She occasionally makes it at home and it's always a treat. Don't read "rice" and wonder how it's a dessert. It's cooked with sugar and coconut milk. It's candied rice. With some toasted sesame seeds on top and fresh mango on the side it truly is amazing. And this comes from a guy with a severe sweet tooth. Let me pick a piece of cake and every time it'll be the one with more frosting on it. Needless to say, I made room for dessert and it was fantastic. You can't go wrong with this one. I'm left wishing I had more time in Surprise to be further surprised. I actually like green curry more than I like panang. I was simply not in the mood for the eggplant this evening and that's part of the green curry combination. I have to resist returning so I can give a few of the other well-reviewed restaurants in the area a try.
