I'm very familiar with Thai food, here and in Thailand. Something is going on here and I can't figure it out. Sometimes it's good and sometimes way way off. I see the same cooks there but the food can be iffy and I don't know why. The spice level, offered between 1 and 5, is way off.
Sometimes a 3 is just right for you, and the next time it's so hot you could never eat it no matter who you are or how spicy you like your food. The signature dish of many Thai restaurants, and certainly one that ALL Thai chefs have done over and over....
Pad Thai, was so bad, we couldn't even eat any of it. Not spicy, just bad. Not even close. Again, I still don't get it. The inconsistency keeps me away now. The soup was nice one day
and not even close a week later. Good luck with this one. Hope you hit it on a "good day".
