Side $5

This was good. I liked that it wasn’t dry and I liked that there was plenty of scrambled eggs. Definitely better than their dry-ish steamed rice.

Ma kuer with chicken – Thai House Express
Sauteed eggplant, bell pepper, bean sauce and fresh basil. $12
Thai House Express, San Francisco CA
This was decent. Surprisingly, it was on the bland side, but I thought that the chicken breast slices were nice and tender. I would have liked some heat or at least more flavor though.
Crispy chicken – Thai House Express
Fried chicken with their special sweet and sour sauce. $11
Thai House Express, San Francisco CA
This chicken was hard and dry! Lame. And their “special” sweet and sour tasted funky and wasn’t very good. I don’t think I’ll ever order this sad dish again.
Brown rice. $5
Panang curry – Thai House Express
Beef, onions and peanuts. $12
Thai House Express, San Francisco CA
This panang curry was on the salty side but I still liked the overall flavor of it. I just wish the slices of beef were less gristly and and a bit more tender.
Singha beer. $5
Combination seafood with spicy basil – Thai House Express
Sauteed shrimp, squid, and scallop with onions, chili, carrot, bell pepper and basil leaves. A la carte $13.95
Thai House Express, San Francisco CA
I like the flavors in there, but the squid was a bit overcooked so it was tough to chew. The service also tends to be inconsistent. It ranges from the most attentive service to having to flag down the waiter depending on the night.
Salvia “Hot Lips” (Salvia microphylla, Lamiaceae). I love the vibrant red and white flowers of this plant (Baby sage, Graham’s sage, Blackcurrant sage).
Beef panang curry – Thai House Express
Beef in medium red curry sauce (coconut milk based) and fresh basil. A la carte $10.95
Thai House Express, San Francisco CA
I really like the panang curry at Thai House Express. It has a wonderfully rich flavor and the beef is almost always juicy and tender. I did have it once when the beef was dry and stringy, ew. I once had a visitor from Thailand and I took him here. He ordered everything in Thai and requested that the dishes be prepared “Thai spicy”. Omg, I could barely eat anything! It was SO spicy. That just reinforces the fact that “American spicy” isn’t really spicy at all. But I will say that even when I was traveling in the outer provinces of Thailand, they didn’t prepare food as spicy as Thai House Express that night.
