Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes. I too know the feeling of cheating on a lost love. Losing a favorite restaurant is a blow to the chest, well I should say, a blow to the tummy. I haven’t had GREAT Thai in awhile. I just haven’t found “MY” place, my go-to Thai Restaurant where it’s delicious, authentic and a little adventurous. It looks like you hit the jackpot, Danielle! Those oxtails are calling my name.

Ughhh it’s so hard when you lose a restaurant that you love, but this thai place definitely makes up for my loss. And yes, the oxtails called my name too so you’re not alone, Mary =]

I’m with Mary, the oxtails are calling me too! Hehe. I love thai food so I thoroughly enjoyed reading this entry and you know what, I personally related to your feeling when your favorite food joint closed down without notice as I’ve experienced it before and I did grieve. Sometimes, it gets me philosophical too. Who am I kidding, I get philosophical every time. Awesome food joints can be like seasons. They change so it’s best not to grow too attached to one but experience it while it lasts and welcome a new one when one like your awesome new Thai spot! Girly, I miss you!! Hope you’re having a gorgeous February there Danielle!! <3

Haha the oxtails were calling all of us!! It seriously is a time of grieving when your fave restaurant closes. I don’t know why it’s so hard, it’s not like losing a family member which is serious, but not being able to get the great food in a place you love is so hard. This spot really came in when I needed it and they have such delicious food it’s insane! And I miss you too. I’m finally back to normal so I’m heading to your blog now!!

I would have loved to try the papaya salad, Danielle. When I was in Thailand, every restaurant we went to we ordered papaya salad; it’s our favorite dish. We found that the restaurants where the locals goes, server much spicier food.

OMG I don’t doubt that the local favorite spots would have the spicier food. I would eat them and act all tough and then cry quietly in the bathroom lol. What part of Thailand did you go to when you went?

Leo Tat says:

First time I had papaya salad was at a mini family restaurant. I asked for a little bit of chili in the papaya, and the cook took a handful of cayenne pepper and threw it in lol. I grew up eating chili so my tongue could take it, however, my stomach was feeling the heat.

We went to Bangkok, Chiangmai, and Pattaya. We really enjoyed the culture and food there, and so may move to Thailand in a few years time.

Ahhh I love that story so much, Leo!

This looks so good! I’m so hungry right now.
