. "Oh, Tree Country Bistro, you keep changing my mind! I still LOVE you (especially your basil fried rice! YUM!), but I have had a problem recently!...\n\nThe first time I ordered your Country Style Pad Thai, I loved it. I thought it was better than my former favorite down the street, High Thai'd. Between my boyfriend and myself, this dish has been ordered a handful+ more times since that first visit. But the last few times, it hasn't had any reasonable amount of spice! So I have started asking for it \"spicier than usual\" and saying things like \"I like my food spicy, I can handle the heat!\" \n\n^This is what I did today when I ordered food to be picked up, hoping that it would cure my worst-summer-cold-ever. I specifically said that Tree Country Bistro's food hasn't been spicy enough for me recently, and I was sick and wanted it to have an extra kick! The person who took my order laughed and said ok, extra hot! HOWEVER, when I got home and started eating, the extra spice was nowhere to be tasted. I realize I have a cold so perhaps that dampened my tastebuds a bit, but it tasted terribly mild (still delicious, but mild!). \n\nI may be a blonde-haired Scandinavian, but I really do like my food with a bit of kick to it. So PLEASE give me the heat I ask for! \n\nObviously this review is a giant complaint, but I still love the food, so 4 stars rather than my previous 5."^^ . "4"^^ . "2"^^ . . "2013-07-18T00:00:00"^^ .
