Chicken, bean sprouts, carrots, cilantro, mozzarella, Zeeks peanut sauce, olive oil glaze.
Zeeks Pizza, Lynnwood WA
This pizza was certainly creative, but I’m not sure it was for me. It was really weird to have all that Thai flavor and textures on a pizza (I didn’t choose the flavor). I’m sure other people must enjoy it though.
Minced chicken, red onions, scallions, cilantro sprinkled with lime juice and spices. $6.99
Tara Thai, Herndon VA
This was ok. It wasn’t as bland as the other dishes, but it still lacked the acidity that I look for in larb gai’s. It certainly ate on the healthy side.
Sauteed chicken with hot chili, garlic, and fresh basil. $11.99
Tara Thai, Herndon VA
This was more flavorful than there pad thai, but it still lacked the intensity of flavor that I expect in Thai food. It made me so sad! 😦 The chicken was cooked nicely though – still tender and not overcooked.
With pad thai. $9.99
Coriander Gourmet Thai, San Francisco CA
Ugh, I swear that their pad thai gets worse each time I visit! It has become more dry and bland. That catfish was ok, but you it’s harder to mess up fried food covered in sauce. The sauce wasn’t spicy at all though.
Stir-fried chicken with thin rice noodles, bean curd, bean sprouts, scallions, and egg topped with peanuts. $11.99
Tara Thai, Herndon VA
This looks bland, AND it tasted bland! There was no flavor to this pad thai at all – sheesh! I’m used to Thai food that actually has flavor. This was probably one of the worst pad thai I’ve ever had. 😦
With pad thai. $9.99
Coriander Gourmet Thai, San Francisco CA
This was passable, not as real Thai food, but as a yummy and substantial lunch. I liked the large strips of chicken and the sauce was pretty good.
Mild thick curry with beef, broccoli, carrot, zucchini, bell pepper, and basil. Served with tom yum soup and rice. $8.95
Crepe & Curry, San Francisco CA
This was decent. I liked the flavor of the curry and and the vegetables were good, but the beef was a bit tough.
With pad thai. $9.74
Coriander Gourmet Thai, San Francisco CA
This is probably some of the worst Thai food in The City, but it’s also very Americanized and pleasantly familiar tasting. The chicken was dry as usual and the pad thai was bland, but it made for a filling lunch.
Boneless duck seasoned with onions, cucumber, and roasted ground rice in spicy sauce. $11
Banana House, San Francisco CA
This duck salad was a nice change from the usual Thai dishes that I normally order. I liked the flavors in this dish, but there wasn’t much duck.
Spicy red curry paste with bamboo shoot, bell pepper, and basil. Combo served with egg roll, Thai salad, rice, and Thai iced tea. $14.50
Banana House, San Francisco CA
This was decent, but the curry was too runny and mild for my taste. I liked the coarse cuts of vegetables though, and I thought that the combo was decently priced.
Side $5
Thai House Express, San Francisco CA
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.
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.
