@theroamingcook2 жыл бұрын
Thanks Thomas. I like Pad Thai as well! Everything better after beer haha
I've only been to Thailand once a long time back, and got stuck on the Pad Thai roundabout (or often second rate places with English menus) largely through not speaking a word or understanding Thai script. I never really knew what I was ordering. At some places you could get away with the old point at a photo but that only works in touristed places (to be fair, that's basically where I went to) and you only know what it looks like. Its probably a bit easier these days with translation apps on phones. These types of videos are great for those of us farang without a clue, though I would still be stuck with trying to pronounce anything. The Kuay Teow Kua Gai looked really good, and different.

The only limitation why this menu was not on the restaurant because it must be cook with charcoal and a little bit smoked flavor must have in this recipe and yeah it a very unique and skilled one to cook. If you try and they are not with the requirement above they are totally fake "ก๋วยเตี๋ยวคั่วไก่" (คั่ว = cook with burning pan with charcoal heat for smoke flavor.)

Can't be done because... 1. national dish that's been promoted by the government since the start of thai restuarants in US 2. Most white people will order this dish because it's safe and familiar. They are not going to try papaya salad or khoa soi...fck no 3. They are many bad versions because there are many that are being made in thailand and laos. It increases with volume. 4. Most people will order this dish because they can't fcking pronounce the other dishes. And if the dish is translated, seeing ingredients like lemongrass will immediately turn them off 5.
