I finally went back to NIcky's after almost a year! Time flies when you're having fun. Or taking time to eat my way through Pittsburgh. Irregardless... I believe the last time I was here I sorta wanted to be impressed more. This time, I was!
I went all in and swayed from my usual Pad Thai and get crazy with another menu choice. Okay, I admit it wasn't super crazy. It was still a noodle dish, but hey, you gotta start somewhere, right? I ordered the Phad See Eaw, which is rice noodles with stir fried broccoli and sweet soy sauce. I 'm always into the shrimp, so I had to add some into the dish.
And you know what? It was awesome! Maybe better than the Pad Thai. Wait, it was better than the Pad Thai! Huge portion, enough to enjoy the next day. Now I'm excited to go back and try other dishes. Since there's a new location downtown it will give me that much more of an excuse to head down there to "try" the new joint out.
Hot Tip: BYOB and they do take reservations. We went on a Friday night and it was packed for such a tiny place, so remember to plan ahead!
