| - A few days after Thanksgiving, we all needed a change from turkey. What better way to spice things up than to order Thai food? We placed a gigantic order at Lemon Grass, including Pad Thai, House Fried Rice, Chicken with Pine Nuts, Green Curry Noodles, Panang Curry, Massaman Curry, Chicken Coconut Soup, Beef with Macadamia Nuts, and Pork with Green Noodles.
Everything was ready quickly - we picked up the order after about 20 minutes or so. I'd say, given the quality of the food, it was overpriced. Nothing was really especially good. It was all just standard, but tasty, Thai take out. Nothing that made us say wow. I did enjoy the non-curry dishes the most (the fried rice and pad thai especially) - those were a little above average to me. The curries were all fine....but they all tasted REALLY similar. That was disappointing. We really couldn't detect much difference between the three at all. That was a bit disappointing. They were so much alike that we mixed the leftovers all together and put them in the same tupperware - no reason to keep them separate.
It's fine, it's fast, and it's pretty much what you'd expect Thai takeout to be. There might be a few standouts, but overall it's not anything you haven't had before. I'm sure you could find more authentic and more fresh-tasting Thai food easily.
