This looks nice and simple! Good thing we're taking a trip to the asian grocer today, looks like I need to get some more stink-tastic fish sauce. If you're feeling brave, I've got a fantastic recipe for Thai chicken coconut milk soup, Tom Kha Gai...but then you also need to find galangal and lemongrass.<BR/><BR/>Fish sauce. So nasty smelling, but so essential to Thai food! And is that your rice china? I *love* it!ameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17523535460114457419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194867.post-86958648311508648232008-03-01T06:00:00.000-09:002008-03-01T06:00:00.000-09:00I think it's great you decided to make something y...I think it's great you decided to make something you had tried once and didn't care for because you had guests who liked it. <BR/><BR/>Isn't it amazing how there can be so many different ways to make one dish? Sounds like the recipe you found was far superior to the one you had the misfortune to eat before. <BR/><BR/>By the end of this post I was ready to go out and buy the ingredients and make this myself. Probably not really going to happen... but it sure sounds good!<BR/><BR/>Kim @ TheBitterBallAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00781164870994615088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194867.post-18640192012354670912008-02-28T23:29:00.000-09:002008-02-28T23:29:00.000-09:00Yum!

It was something out of a Perry Mason novel. You have a way with words. Your description of your misadventure with Pad Thai was so picturesque and colorful that I could almost smell the fish sauce and the pressed tamarinds. But I must say that you are a born cook to be able to whip up an authentic Pad Thai in your very first try and served to your guests too. How audacious can you get. Thanks for the very entertaining post. God bless you and your loved ones always.Mel Avila Alarillahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00166954063114607598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194867.post-31111255993375668532008-02-26T17:02:00.000-09:002008-02-26T17:02:00.000-09:00Awesome!
