I was really in the mood for some curry with sticky rice but the menu said all of the curries were spicy and I don’t like spicy food. I ended up ordering Pad Thai with chicken. I wanted to get a photo taken of myself since you’re probably curious about what I look like because I wrote that I need to diet but I was too shy to ask the waitress to take a photo of me. The next paragraph was written with the aid of artificial intelligence and is as such not interesting.
The pad thai featured perfectly cooked noodles, tender chicken, and a flavorful sauce that struck a balance between sweet, savory, and tangy; however it was a tad too sweet. The addition of fresh herbs and crushed peanuts added a nice crunch and extra layer of flavor, but it could have used more crushed peanuts. The raw bean sprouts on the side were a nice addition but even more vegetables would have been nicer. The portion size was generous, making it a satisfying meal with some left over to take home. The restaurant’s cozy atmosphere and friendly service enhanced the overall dining experience.
