Thai Hot



My quest for the best Thai Food in San Diego is on. And as a girl whose long time routine of holing up on a Sunday afternoon with the latest TV show series (seriously I have been doing this a while, you can really crank through the episodes of Greys, Desperate Housewives, Pretty Little Liars, Weeds etc) and ordering Thai Food (through Grubhub or eat24 because, yes I am that lazy to pick up a phone and call) you can try a few different places. So now that I have found your new favorite Thai place, how about you give a gal a few TV series recommendations
1.       Farmers Market Thai Place-Saranya (Ok I know slightly cheating since they don’t exactly deliver, but sometimes I have leftovers!)
a.       Hands down the best. Spicy as all get out-they ask you Thai Spicy 1-10. Order a 3. You will still live, I won’t promise that if you go spicier. Fresh, fresh, fresh and loaded with veggies and protein. Musts are the noodle and rice dishes. Also check out the fattest Thai Shrimp rolls you have ever seen! I’m checking out the curry selection next!
2.       Lotus Thai
a.       Yum. This place is good.  The curry is spicy and the pad thai a tasty noodle mixture with plenty of vegetables and spice to round it out.
3.       Mint Thai
a.       Don’t. Just don’t.
4.       Bali Thai
a.       Quickest delivery of them all (30-40 mins most days). Good thai, but can sometimes be a bit greasy. However, I do love the Fresh Rolls (spring for the extra sauce because it’s delicious!) and the soups-YUM!
5.       Thai Time (Ocean Beach)
a.       Again I’m cheating a little, but if you are feeling guilty about laying on your couch all day and can venture out for the 15-20 minutes it takes to pick up your takeout, this would be the place to do that for. It’s all good. And so are the prices. Eat-up! Your wallet won’t be losing weight and neither will you!
