I prefer pork satay but any kind of satay is good!

I really love duck in red curry. Yum!

Oh, and Pad Thai is my all time favorite Thai dish but the trouble
is I can't find any good Pad Thai around where I live now. The
place I used to go to in Calif. had the world's best. Sigh.

Oh, and if they have fresh coconut juice (more likely at a Vietnamese
place) you have to try it. Especially if they have it in the coconut
shell. It's awesome.
