Unfortunately, my entertainment meter is low tonight. Creativity levels are running on fumes. I took lots of pictures though. \n\n*Came for lunch with my D-school peeps. Prices are reasonable. Portions are generous. Lunch specials are available.\n\n*The place is clean, almost too clean. Decor is modern.\n\n*Curry puff was not good. Pastry was dry, curry was dry. The curry filling was essentially a crumbly mass of bland stuff.\n\n*Boat noodle soup: What I ordered. An interesting take on beef noodle soup. It didn't taste like Taiwanese beef noodle soup, pho, bun bo hue, nor galbitang. It was much stronger with a strong dose of sweet. I suspected the culprit was some sort of plum-like sauce, but wasn't able to confirm. My table-mates loved it. I, on the other hand, get very angry when things that aren't supposed to be sweet are sweet. (Korean wings, I'm looking at you.)\n\n*Tom kha: very milky, very sour, just the way I like it. Mushrooms, onions, cilantro, and onions were plentiful.\n\n*Spicy basil: took one bite, approved of the seasoning and the spice. Rated 4 stars by friend.\n\n*Red curry: took zero bites. Rated 5 stars by friend. However, she found the 8 out of 10 spice level she chose to be inadequate. If you can handle the heat, even a level 10 here would barely have you breaking a sweat.\n\n*Highlight was the Thai tea. Free with Yelp check-in. Served chilled in a huge mason jar. Fantastic blend of tea and milk. \n\n*In the sea of Thai places in Vegas, this one fits right in as being perfectly (and slightly) better than average, but memorable more for its look than for its food. I've had much better in Cali. Must be the Vegas inflation again.\n\n*40, here I come!"^^ . "3"^^ .
