It took me a while to decide what I was going to order, one because there were so many choices and combinations, and two because I had never eaten Thai food before. So, I stuck to what I knew: chicken and ginger. Megan ordered tofu and vegetables, and Emmy ordered chicken satay and red curry. The cashier and waitstaff were incredibly polite and fast. They made sure we had eating utensils, different sauces, napkins, rice... Man, did we have rice. And the portions were perfect and way more than you would expect for the price you'd be paying. Megan and I spent no more than $10 and got a ton of food. Emmy ordered more than we did and barely spent $15. Needless to say, our take out bags were pretty heavy. When I found out you could order by phone and then come pick it up, I was sold on this place. If you want really good food for an even better price, your best bet is going to be Basil Thai Cafe.
So, after we returned to the office (my car smelled like amazing Thai food the entire night), we laid out our spread. This is what we got:
From left to right: Red curry with rice, chicken satay (Emmy), tofu with vegetables, rice (shared between Megan and I), and ginger chicken and vegetables (me).
Emmy's red curry, rice, and chicken satay.
Megan's tofu and vegetables, rice for both of us, and my ginger chicken and vegetables.
Once we sat down and started eating, the rest of the night was spent feasting. The food was so good. Nothing was too spicy, too cold, or too bland. At the end of our meal, the only thing left was rice. Man, was there rice...
