Any fan here ?
I am myself a huge fan of thai food especially from the south where its a bit more spicy than the north. I love curry with coconut sauce and also Pad thai.

Actually I try to improve my thai receipe so if you have any tips to add feel free.


cheers !

Sawadee krup !

One Thai food fan over here

Spicy padthai or red curry chicken. Yum.

you both need to expand your thai food horizons...those are very north american dishes.

don't get me wrong I love those dishes too and thai food in general

Ive been in thailand several times and learn in few international cooking houses out there.
Its not because you will find few receipes all around the places in toronto chinatown thats its from there originaly

makes no sense but ok

Its because I tried to followed your logic..

Tylenol is actually right... while pad thai is actually thai, it's not really a common meal locals will have there. It's mostly made for foreigners. There is SO much more to thai cooking then pad thai and coconut milk curry.. those are mainly meals for tourists.
The proof is if you eat by big touristic places (palaces in bkk etc) you will find pad thai stall everywhere... But if you go where no tourists go, small places and such, wild markets in small town, you most likely won't see any around...

you wrong.
Pad thai is all around the place. Ive been in Ubon Ratchatani on mekong river and found Pad thai in the middle of the forest.
the background start just after the recession followed the ww2. Thai government wanted to reduce the rice consumption so they created rice noodle which was way cheaper and the Pad thai meal became one of the most popular meal in the whole country.

But yes, Pad thai and curry dishes are ones of the most popular stuff outside thailand as well

Pad thai is not one of the most popular meal in the whole country lol... heck ive seen more wood fire grilled chicken stall then pad thai... ive eat in lots of part of thailand, and in non touristic spot , i couldnt see any pad thai around...

I'm actually not a fan of Thai food. I do love Pad See Yue or however you spell it.

I prefer Indian curry over Thai curry.
