.... this place is legiznit.... *inside joke*
No but seriously, this place is great. And we had a live singer their playing 80s love jams.
Let me tell you how to handle yourself here.
1. Papaya salad
2. Panang Curry
3. Duck Fried Rice (maybe not on menu)
4. Won Ton Soup (for all the haters stay away, I love this stuff)
5. Pad Kee Mao (sp?)
Papaya salad. So light and refreshing. That spicy lime dressing is killer. I put it all over my rice when I'm done, can't get enough of it. Panang curry is good, they put a lot of chicken or whatever you like.
Duck fried rice needs its own paragraph... I first learned about this dish in a thai place in San Francisco. So we asked the waitress if they had it, and sure enough they did. This dish can go wrong because the duck can be fatty and places can use a lot of oil to make it. But Marnee Thai used nice pieces of duck and the dish wasn't too greasy. It's a party in the mouth definitely.
Won top soup... not the most flavorful, probably the most boring dish we had compared with the flavorful competition. But still legiznit.
Pad Kee Mao, you can go wrong with the big flat noodles and the rich taste. Unbeatable texture, love it.
The singer from that night is no Elvis Presley, but he kept us entertained the whole night. My favorite thai place so far in the city.
Arvin T... out!
I'll probably never write that last part in a review ever again, it seemed like a good idea at the time though.
