BellaOnline Forums Food and Wine Thai Food What is your favourite Thai dish?

My 2 favorite thai dishes are: pad thai with chicken and pad kee mao (spelling?) so yummy and spicy also with chicken...this is making me hungry!!!

My favorite is also PKee Mao/Drunkards Noodles. I made the recipe on this site and it is the best I have ever eaten!

Thai Green curry with vermicelli noodles

I love eating Thai rice a lot.

OK, I've got to add to the Tom Kaa Gai, Massaman Chicken (my husband introduced me to this and I'm hooked!)

And someone mentioned Thai Iced Tea - Yes!

Pad thai is my measuring stick for Thai restaurants. Must not be grey or sticky, lots of bean sprouts, chicken and shrimp, peanuts and loads of lime wedges. Then my favorites are Thom yum goong 5 hot (that's the fiery shrimp/lemongrass/mushroom soup that comes in a lit server); spicy catfish; laab (hard to find when it's perfect but it must have lots of cilantro, onions & pepper); a hit-the-roof relish of braised fresh thai chilis and onion, (you know, those mean little mothers that my chickens destroy); green papaya salad (don't let them substitute carrots); and oh yes, spicy garlic scallops, and a red tamarind curry.
Can you tell I'm an addict? Can't wait to go to Thailand as a foodaholic. I'm going to look for ShoeGal's green jade curry!

My favorite is the Phad Se-ew (I hope I spelled it right) with tofu...large rice noodles, broccoli, black bean sauce, soy sauce, sugar and mildly spiced all stir fried together. Yummm!!! I love the intense garlic flavor along with the spiciness of the black bean sauce.

All curries are great too. Green, red or yellow... I like them all!

I also like basil based stir fry.

I'm a Thai Curry junkie!!!

Every time we go to a Thai restaurant I have to get at least one curry with coconut milk.

Love the green, yellow, red... love it all.

So far my favorite dishes are:
Panang Curry
Yellow Curry
Green Curry
Larb [all w/ fried tofu]
Vegetable fried Rice
Stir fried Morning Glory
Coconut Ice Cream
Thai Iced Tea w/ Boba

There's something about the curries with the kaffir lime leaves and lime juice added to them that just puts them over the edge. You gotta live life over the edge at times.
