Make it spicy please
Numtok and Spicy Catfish
Bai Som keeps it real
______
Most places just won't make it Hot and Spicy no matter what you say. I experience it all the time where I'll specify, "give me your 10 out of 10 spiciness" and what I usually end up with is a plate of bland food.
At Bai Som, it was spicy, but still edible and yummy, and that's how I like it. Moreover, it's one of the best Thai restaurants in the area--and there are a lot of Thai places in this part of town for some reason.
The waitress sat me in a seat where the sunset blazed right into my cornea, but I'll forgive her for that because the food was just that good. Thanks Bai Som, I'll come again soon.
Really cute Thai restaurant that I finally got a chance to try this afternoon.
It was just a quick take out of Chicken Phad Thai (yeah I'm lame), but very delicious and an absolute massive quantity of it for $9. I can't wait to work my way through the menu at later dates and started to wonder why I hadn't come here sooner. Oh yeah, because the girl I was living with hated Thai food (seriously wtf?)
As with any restaurant on Clement, parking is a bitch. Try heading up to Lake & 25th.
Had dinner with two of my favorite gays, i mean boys, i mean gay boys...because gay means happy right?
J picked a good place. Bai Som is cute and cozy inside and our waitress was incredibly friendly and attentive. We had 4 dishes on the table: bai som roll, panang salmon, red curry chicken, and beef pad kee mow. I only ate the bai som roll and the panang salmon. The roll was good but not my cup of tea and the panang salmon was really good. Not too spicy and the salmon was perfectly flaky & moist. B had the rolls and the pad kee mow (predictable) and hoovered the whole damn thing like a starving child in a third world country. Yeah it was good. J must have really liked his red curry chicken because he got all choked up and started crying. It broke my heart. So much that i couldnt stop laughing at his pain. (fyi - beware of the dry hot spice)
Good prices, good food and good service. Its on Clement so i dont even have to warn you about parking. I'll be coming back here again. Thanks for a great dinner boys :)
Meh. Average Thai Food at above average prices.
Pad Thai was pretty marginal - not terrible but not great. The Gaipow w/ pork and the shrimp fried rice were better but again not great. The food seemed almost like fast food in quality (like Panda Express equivalent).
The prices seemed a tad high for the size of the dish but that can happen anywhere.
The staff is friendly. The place was empty at 6:00 on a Tuesday so the service was good. The decor seemed more formal than the food warranted.
Overall the food was OK but I have had much better Thai in SF so I will probably not return.
We've been to Thailand 3 times and love Thai food. Walking inside, it smelled like a REAL Thai restaurant. We tried a new dish and thought we had died and gone to heaven!!! Try the pot stickers with the yellow curry dipping sauce. YUUUUMMMMMM!! Several Thai families were inside eating, which to me is an endorsement
We came here after our horrible experience at Pho Garden down the block and after we left there we walked over and this was the first restaurant we saw. I think we made a good choice in coming here as the food was good and the thing that made the place better was definitely the service. The waitress we had was extremely courteous and very attentive. It was a nice quiet place for dinner which I think can be a good for small crowds, couples, etc. I would defitely come back if I was in the area and wanted Thai food.
This place serves the best Thai food outside of Asia!
Looking for a warm place to fill my stomach one night walking down Clement, I saw the pink canopy from across the street and decided to check out the menu. When I walked in and was greeted in Thai and I knew I had made the right choice.
Their Tom Yum Salmon soup is the best I've ever had, and every curry I've tried is fabulous. If you really like ginger, try the ginger tea (especially with the coconut ice cream).
The service is wonderful, especially just before the dinner rush. They remembered me AND my previous order the second time I came in and gave me free refills on my Thai iced tea and extra sticky rice to take home with my leftovers.
The only problem I've ever had here is forcing myself to stop eating. There's always something else I want to try and the portions are too big to eat more than one dish alone. Luckily I live close enough to go back and try something new every day.
I am really, truly sad to have to give this place one star. I see that no one ever has before, and let's face it, I'm usually quite forgiving when it comes to Thai food. Unfortunately... our food actually demands the one star.
We ordered tom kha kai, yellow chicken curry, and red beef curry. The tom kha kai was this place's saving grace, if it had one. It earned the one star. The curries were probably the worst I have ever had. It is really hard to displease me with Thai food--I have my favorites, but I'm really not all that picky. The yellow curry was unbelievably bland... no spice, no flavor... in fact, I couldn't even finish it. I ate about half. My husband's red curry was not much better. It was spicy, but still lacked flavor, and was incredibly salty. To add insult to injury, I could not chew a single piece of beef that I ate.
It really pains me to look over at the coffee table and see half of my yellow curry and about 3/4 of his red curry just sitting there... waiting for us to get up and dump it in the trash. Usually yelp is right on, but not with this place... Maybe they were having an off night, but for me, it was a waste of money and calories.
This is THE BEST RESTAURANT IN THE CITY! and I don't take the statement lightly.
The last time I was in there we strolled in :15min before close, and they treated my and my friend like kings regardless.
Everything on the menu is amazing, I tend to trust in the specials to get something new.
Also, the sweet sticky rice with mango, is worth the trip by it self.
I have been going here for years and years, back in the day when the fried won-tons were only $2.95 an order! My favorite dish is Tom Kar Gai I like to order it medium to medium-hot. I also love the prawn suite, the little potato cakes with curry, yellow chicken curry, bbq chickent, bbq pork, fried won-tons, fried rice with duck and mango with sticky rice.
Many years ago they had a 2nd location on clement near park presidio but that has been closed for years.
Looking for a yummy dinner around Clement is not hard. You just have to make good decisions! We didn't go too far when we spotted a brightly pink colored Bai Som. A pink colored Thai restaurant? Let's go in!
The waitresses were so cute with their Thai dresses on and the service was friendly throughout our meal. The whole place was decked out with Thai inspired accents.
We've been a little obsessive with fried dough lately so we knew we had to have some of the spinach pancakes with yellow curry. The pancakes were perfectly crisp and oily. But the yellow curry sauce was even better! SO creamy good! I totally regreted not ordering curry as my main dish.
We also got the Salmon Fried Rice and Pad See Ew. We wanted brown fried rice and they were very accommodating. The portions were big too. Usually Pad See Ew is a bit too sweet for a noodle dish but this one was not sweet enough unfortunately. I'm glad I ordered it with prawns because they were big and succulent! They also gave free refills for my Thai iced tea.
Good thing we went with my decision on where to eat! It was obviously based on a credible factor. Pink = good. I thoroughly enjoyed my meal here.
This restaurant is very cute; I ordered the yellow curry and it was tasty (but like another reviewer wrote, not special.) Portion was about right - not too big, not too small, but for the price it could stand to be a little bigger, still not bad though.
This place would be a solid 4 but 2 stars off for the severe MSG (or other additive) reaction I got. :-( Within ten minutes of eating my head started getting cloudy and I lost feeling all over my skin. (It came back shortly, but was still very unpleasant.)
Fresh! Fresh! Fresh!
Lovely service when you eat in, quick and correct delivery when you order in! Love the green onion cake and the spicy fried rice. Husband loves anything that comes from the venerable piggie!
Happy as a chicken in curry that this place is so close to my Casa Balboa!
Don't even think about darkening the door of my sweet little Outer Fogbank Thai gem, you bastards.
There's a reason this place is a half block from my house. IT BELONGS TO ME.
You think you deserve the likes of the world's best Tom Yum soup (with scallops -- currently one of the Specials)? Or the Pad See-Ew, so good I won't even share it with my kids? Or the Numtok, which is ... well, perfect?
Trust me. Until you've stood in gale-force fog outside the closed door of this place in the morning, waiting for a bus that's going to take like 50 minutes to get you to work, yearning for the wonders on the other side of that locked door ... YOU DON'T.
We locals get our Bai Som the old-fashioned way. WE EARN IT.
What a lovely little place!
Delicious food and excellent service - a wonderful secret neighborhood gem!
The other reviewers have summed up the experience quite well, I believe.
I dunno. The delivery was fast, but I live about 4 blocks away. The food wasn't like the Thai I was used to and everything I got had something a bit off about it. The pad thai was dry and lacked flavor. The chicken was super dry and was tasteless. The duck fried rice was really greasy. I expect fried rice to be greasy and duck is a fatty bird, but it was caked on the bottom of the tray and had canned pineapple, and what looked and tasted like frozen peas, carrots, and corn. Uh. I hate that stuff in my fried rice. The spicy wings were heavily breaded and not all that meaty.
I really was looking forward to easing my Thai craving, but Bai Som didn't cut it.
Let me start off by saying the service was great, I have actually been here a few times. Each time wondering why I came back...LOL Well first off, the food takes ok but not the greatest. Last time the green beans was horrible, this time we ordered the seafood fried rice and it was $14.95??? We were shocked when we saw the bill. Also the fish cakes(appetizer) used to be thicker, now its almost as thin as a slice of kraft cheese.. Come on Baisom you gotta do better than this. The chicken pad thai tasted alright, and the shrimp pad thai was great. So how can pad thai's with different meats have such dramatic difference in taste? My biggest complaint is the portions, for the price you are charged the portions need to be bigger. Especially when there are Thai restaurants all over the SF/Richmond district. I really feel bad giving this place such a low score, because our waitress/staff was very nice and did everything right, just the kitchen or management is using poor judgement in the pricing scheme and portions. Well after 3 tries, I don't think I will be returning to this place.
Thanks, Yelpers, for turning us on to Bai Som. This restaurant is such a treat. The waitresses greeted us in Thai and thanked us in Thai, which is rare and so charming. The menu was enticing and vast, and the food was all delicious, sparkling fresh and flavorful. Also really enjoyed the brown rice they serve, which has some red beans in it, I think, for a toothsome texture. Wonderfully prompt and friendly service, nice atmosphere. No complaints whatsoever!
Loved it and we'll be back. Bottom line: if you can get a parking space, go!
This is a great place.
I was too lazy to walk into there for a while because the inside is not well illuminated. But once you go in it looks really nice and spacious. I dont know if its on purpose or convenience, but the interior is really cool. It looks like huge pieces of wood are arranged randomly.
But the most important thing, food, is what makes this place great. I got Prawn Pad Thai and was really happy with it. I am not an expert on thai food but this was some of the best pad thai I had.
Hankering for some thai, we decided to drop by here after a day of work.
A decent sized restaurant with dim lighting.
We ordered some simple items...
Chicken Satay
Duck Fried Rice
Pad Thai
Ever since my incident with thai food and food poisoning, I play it safe and I order cooked items. Its like my safety net, even if the food tastes bad at least its COOKED!...
But anyways though, the duck fried rice was really good, chicken satay was also very good..and the pad thai was a lot better than most places.
Their portions are quite large and I actually want to try their curries.
Oh yea, before I forget to mention this, if you dont like un cooked bean sprouts in your pad thai or you dont like onions or etc, tell them before hand. If you dont, they will tell you that you should of told them so they wouldnt waste it on you.....well they didnt say it like that but they gave me us that feeling lol...
***Review for delivery only***
Does anyone else ever feel like they get the same tasting Thai dishes even though you order from different Thai restaurants? Well I do, and even though I do get a certain comfort factor from King of Thai's noodles, sometimes you've just gotta change it up!
In comes Bai Som... Hungry and unmotivated to make any food, I turned to my boyfriend asking for some money to get takeout.. He gave me his credit card and I hopped onto Yelp as quickly as possible for some ideas... I was a bit stuck on what type of food to order... Indian food or Thai food? I truly did want some delicious Indian food, but I wanted Little Delhi and there was no way in hell I was about to leave my place. So Thai food it was! And hot damn, it truly was a good choice!
I think if you've been reading my reviews for awhile, you'd get the picture that I love noodles... So it's not surprising that I of course ordered noodles... Delicious noodles at that! After battling my indecisiveness, I finally figured out what I wanted... Something I always order... The Pad See-Ew with chicken. It's a nice standard to try out and compare to other places I'm familiar with and like. And with that in mind, I think I can honestly say this is the best Pad See-Ew I have ever had! No joke! It was fresh tasting, not the generic flavor/noodles you find at King of Thai, Best of Thai, etc. The noodles were delicious! They were wide like a pappardelle noodle, but paper thin... SO GOOD! My boyfriend had the Pad Kee Mow with chicken. He loved it! Spicy and full of fresh veggies! And when I say spicy, I mean spicy... My boyfriend can handle most menu items that say "spicy" because they're not actually spicy! This is actually spicy; spicy and delicious!
I'll definitely be hitting up Bai Som more often. But next time I've gotta eat at the actual restaurant... It always looks so cute whenever I walk by! Also, the employees were extremely friendly and patient... Fast delivery too! A must try if you live in the Outer Richmond and enjoy Thai food!
my brother in law was next door for the pho challenge so I stumbled upon this thai place by accident. Surprisingly it is really good!! It's been couple weeks so I couldn't exactly recall what I had, but for sure the food was great. definitely would recommend...
Walking into Bai Som Thai Kitchen is like walking into a portal to Thailand. For me, the atmosphere of any place, whether it's a restaurant, retail store, or whatever, is probably one of the most important things that either makes or breaks a business. When a customer feels happy and comfortable in an environment, that's a really good thing; the same goes for the opposite end of the spectrum.
Well, with this introduction, I will have to say that I really really enjoyed the atmosphere at Bai Som Thai. The decorations around the restaurant were very gorgeous, authentic, yet not distracting. There were pictures of the Thai King, traditional statues/statuettes (there were a couple cute ones of chubby Asian babies sleeping!), and maybe there was also the sound of a waterfall in the background (I can't quite recall at the moment).
Even the servers were dressed in seemingly traditional Thai clothing. It really did feel like I was sitting in a restaurant in Thailand; all that was missing was the scenery outside. Inside the restaurant, soft music was playing and overall the place was peaceful, even though there were several other tables around us. A very cozy feeling was within me the whole time I dined there with my friend....
The menu is extensive, with plenty of specialties and reasonable prices (most of them under $10). My friend and I ordered the Yellow Curry Fried Rice and the Spicy Salmon with Basil. The Yellow Curry Fried Rice was HUGE; at first my friend was going to eat the plate by himself, but upon receiving the plate of rice on the table, he figured we should just split our dishes so he wouldn't have a stomachache later from too much food (haha). The Spicy Salmon with Basil was good, not too spicy, but still packed a lot of flavor. I ordered a side of brown rice with the salmon and the rice was also very tasty. It's not your typical brown rice; it looks more like the "special" brown rice that Japanese serve on special occasions (looks a little more red-tinted than brown). My friend and I were so hungry that we polished off both dishes.
The service was pretty good; servers went around and made sure we had plenty of water to drink the whole time. Food was also served in a timely manner, which is always a plus (nobody wants to wait around forever for food, right?). The servers didn't seem to mind that we (and other guests) lingered at the restaurant long after we were finished eating; the atmosphere was so conducive for intimate conversations that we could have stayed there all night.
As an added (and random) plus, I even liked the way the bathrooms were set up (and very clean!); one single bathroom per each gender, with one sink outside both bathroom doors. The set-up reminded me of Japan, which made me feel nostalgic.
Overall, great food and wonderful atmosphere. I will definitely be back to Bai Som Thai Kitchen in the near future.
If you're anything like me (god forbid), every once in a while, you just don't feel like it. You've got no cash, your feet hurt, and you're starving.
Thank god for delivery.
Thing is, I lived in New York City for a year, and got crazy spoiled. Yes, white whine, but I feel like SF just doesn't have enough quality delivery, especially given its solid (and deserved) culinary reputation.
But every once in a while, you do luck out. The Bai Som we ordered last night was one such case.
The delivery lapse (time it took to get here) was a little glacial, but all's forgiven. My yellow curry with chicken, and T's pad grapow with beef were so delicious, swimming along happily in their respective sauces. Both were perfectly seasoned, still very hot, and altogether good-feeling-makers.
The two dishes, one order of rice, and a soda ran us around $20. The credit card part is the kicker, though. Without it, we would've been screwed, doomed to eat pasta with no sauce. Bad planning? Evs. Now we're building a delivery-menu empire. Never leave the house!
After all the high rated yelp reviews, I had very high expectations. Unfortunately when we went in early November, the food and the service was rather disappointing and did not live up to the hype.
My boyfriend and I shared the green onion pancake, which was okay, but nothing to rave about. He ordered the yellow curry and I ordered the Panang Curry. The yellow curry was runny (very thin and watery) with very little flavor and the Panang curry was equally disenchanting.
We won't be returning.
Meh. Nothing to write home about. I had their special the night I went (yellow curry fried rice), and it's wasn't great. I guess I was just hoping it would be fried rice drenched in yellow curry (yum!), when in fact is was just seasoned with yellow curry.
My bf's noodle dish was good though.
With so much other great food in the Richmond, I doubt I'll go back.
We ordered take-out from Bai Som Thai Kitchen. The service was very friendly and attentive. Because of the size of our order, we were offered a complimentary Thai Ice Coffee and a Thai Ice Tea for our wait. Whoa, thanks ladies - it was super nice and unexpected.
For our appetizers we had a couple orders of Chicken Satay. The chicken breast was cooked with less oil and delicious with the peanut sauce. The soup of choice was a pot (serving 3-5) of Tom Kha Kai, chicken soup with coconut milk. Both were pretty good.
For our dishes we order the BBQ salmon and a couple orders of Pad Thai Tofu. The BBQ salmon is cooked in red curry and coconut milk with mixed vegetables. One of their more expensive plates, this plate was delicious. For their Pad Thai Tofu, the noodles are thicker than what I see normally in a Pad Thai and their tofu was cut in smaller cubes. This was actually pretty good.
We get orders of sticky rice and brown rice. Good for them for serving brown rice, a healthy alternative.
For dessert, we get the Fried Banana with Honey. You are given 7 fried banana half slices with sprinkled powdered sugar on top. The honey is served in a small dish. This too was delicious.
I have seen some of the reviews indicating some of their food to be dry. My take on the matter is the amount of cooking oil a restaurant will use. If you cook with more oil, you will get richer flavors. But with less oil, the food will be healthier but may be drier in taste. Honestly, I like both. Bai Som uses a little less oil than some of the other Thai places, but it's still very good. Thanks Bai Som!
i've started a low-carb diet and being asian and all i found it very difficult to order things for lunch... first off i used to always get pho ga at TT but that was outta the question... so i searched frantically for a place that would offer something -- anything that was lowcarb. and voila! i saw on baisom's to-go menu that they had a omelette dish with chicken shrimp and a whole bunch of veggies. i've ordered it 3 times already for lunch so far and still haven't gotten sick of it. score! =). i also tried the grilled salmon salad. no score.
after almost trying every restaurant there is in the outter richmond (clement) area i decided to try… Read more »
A neighborhood favorite!
The wait staff dress in traditional garb, and they are all SO nice and polite. Very beautiful too!
Love the food here, and the prices are right on.
Try: bbq beef salad, tom yom soup, and the pad thai.
Room for dessert? Fried banana with ice cream, or sticky rice! YUM!
This restaurant is great. It doesn't look very appealing though. In fact, it looks like a little hole in the wall like a lot of other restaurants in the neighborhood. But if you find little hole in the wall places to have special charm for informal eating like I do, then you might like this place a lot. I just like it because it's totally mellow. The prices are great. Not once have they ever gone wrong with their curries! Actually I think everything I've ever ordered here has been good. When you ask for medium spicy, you really get medium spicy - not some tamed down crap! All in all, if you just want good food, that you won't be disappointed in, and don't care about ambiance at all, this place is perfect!!!
I really wanted to like this place because it's so close to my house...but sadly, it failed miserably. I got take out here....gave them 30+ minutes to make my food and walked over there and it wasn't done..ok no big deal, so they gave me a complimentary Thai Iced Tea for waiting which was really nice and yummy. The ladies were all very friendly as well.
I got Pad Thai and Garlic Beef. The pad thai was dry and tasted like the vegan pad thai you get from Trader Joe's except you're paying like $10 more and has some crappy chicken in it. Not cool.
The garlic beef wasn't very good either...it was tough and they BURNED the onions! So tragic that someone would burn onions, it broke my heart and made the whole dish taste burnt. They put huge chunks of carrots in it too, and the menu didn't say there were carrots in it, had I have known that I would've requested without them..but I just picked them out.
I probably won't go back..I like Patpong and Khan Toke WAY better.
Now THIS is Thai food! MmMmMMMmmmmMmMMM!!!!!!
My boyfriend and I came to this neighborhood to take our little shithead/chihuahua to a nearby doggie park. I was hungry, so we decided to look for a place nearby, and what we found was GOLD!
I ordered the Pad Thai with prawns, which is a standard favorite of mine, and it was quite tasty. However, my boyfriend ordered some sort of fried rice with shrimp and pineapples and mmmmmMMMmMMmmmM!!!!!
They also had a Tom Kha soup special with pumpkin squash and prawns and it was oh so delicious.
Yes, go back. The staff is friendly and attentive. They got everything right. I am certainly happy with my overall experience!
Oh, and it also helps that the outside is pink and quirky.
One previous reviewer wasn't kidding about the fried tofu: you get TONS of them. And it's all tasty, with the sweet chili garlic sauce mixed with crushed peanuts on it.
HOT Thai Tea (with the same evaporated milk as usual) AND topped with whipped cream?! SO PERFECT for San Francisco's climate! I was in heaven!
Then came the main course: Panang Ribeye Curry with Pumpkin Squash. The pumpkin was just *slightly* underdone, but there was enough food there to feed three people. I'm so not joking.
I will definitely return. There is so much Thai choice in the RIchmond that it's hard to stick with one place, but damn, Bai Som is GOOD.
And I was watching the delivery guy busily running back and forth, so I know for a fact they deliver. I'm gonna go broke living in this part of town! Fat and broke! :D
This place surprised me! Really well done Thai, nice atmosphere too.
Our order:
- Green onion pancake with yellow curry: winner!
- Tom Yum Khai soup: a little too tomato-y, could have used more coconut milk but definitely still hearty.
- #28--Numtok (pork with onion powder and lots other stuff--very salty and oohwhee spicey, watch out!)
- Pumpkin curry with tilapia: super dupe winner!
- Fried banana with coconut ice cream: Good, but not great. Could be sweeter. The whipped cream with the sprinkles was a little overboard though.
Add two rounds of Singha beer, 1 Thai coffee and 1 Thai iced tea: Came out to about $19/person. Not bad!
I'll give a few reasons why I love this place:
1. If you come in for take out, they always offer complimentary tea or iced tea.. SO GOOD.
2. My food is always piping hot and delicious.
3. I live right next door so its perfect for those super lazy days.
4. Everyone is SO nice inside and its a quiet and peaceful ambience you get with your meal. Totally blocks out all the noise of traffic and buses outside.
5. The fried tofu is DELISH and you get like 17 pieces... a ridiculously large amount of tofu.
6. DESSERT= YUMMY
Best Thai Delivery in the Outer Richmond.
I am consistently amazed by the food here. I try to sample something new from the menu every time I order but its hard to pull myself away from their Curry Fried Rice (any curry you want...its all bombdiggity)
Salmon Kabobs
Pad See Ew
Their prices are reasonable and they take card. Bai Som makes living the the Outer Richmond less painful.
This place is great; what a real thai place is all about. Ultra friendly. Very tasty. You feel like you're visiting relatives who can cook up a storm. Extremely reasonable in the price department as well.
Lots of spicy dishes on the menu, so you might want to be careful if you're not really into that. The curries are a specialty but I'm a bit frustrated I didn't get to try 80% of the menu... yet.
I love getting extra spicy yellow curry with beef here. The service is o.k.
This is my favorite neighborhood Thai place. I love there spices and they do a good job of giving good size portions. I have brought many friends/family to Bai Som and have yet to hear anyone say a negative word about it.
The staff is always extremely friendly and always gets the food to you in a timely manner.
They are very consistent with the quality of the food.
Prices are very reasonable.
Bai Som gets 5 stars mainly because when I want Thai(which is my personal fav) this is the place I always end up going to.
It must be that time of the month again. Maybe it's this crappy economy and everyone's stressed or panicking about their finances, which in turn is making them rude and standoffish because civility went down the drain along with their investments. Or maybe it's because humans, in essence, are just mammals, like everything else in the animal kingdom. Whatever it may be, humans can be cold and cruel, except we don't fling poo. (Most of us anyway). Or maybe those last two sentences lacked any form of grammatical correctness or structure. Oh well.
But hey, what better way to mentally berate all of mankind than over dinner with a couple of buddies over Thai food? Wonderfully and blissfully unaware to the inner machinations of my mind, my dinner companions chose this restaurant in the outer Richmond. I'm glad I found parking, considering this is San Francisco and the rule of thumb is park 0.5 mile from your destination (unless you have a disabled placard, where you'd park 0.3 mile from your destination. Yay for metropolitan living.)
It was cold, so I thought best if we went inside and perused teh menu from the warmth and comfort of a chair and table. What's this? Duck curry? Well, it is the weekend, and a balanced healthy diet was so 2005. Let's indulge - let's get something artery clogging and rich.
"I'll have the duck curry please. And a Thai iced tea." Trust me, I'm a lot nicer caffeinated.
My food came relatively quick and I wasted no time digging into the bowl of deliciously spicy and savory curry; the duck was boneless and was not overly fatty, which made me feel slightly better about eating it. (I can live an extra day!) My buddies got the fried tilapia and Pad See-Ew, which was very good as well. But for the first time in a long while, I did not have entree envy. That made my evening marginally better.
Oh, and breaking all rules of tradition I had my curry with brown rice. So I guess that means I live for two extra days!
I think I need to see a therapist. Bai Som must be one of the 12 steps.
