House of Thai BBQ - 2008

While driving home I got stuck in a sig alert. Fortunately, I had bought some beef pad thai from House of Thai BBQ. I thought I was going to enjoy this at home. Nope, just put car in park and ate it right there.

On another visit I had their beef satay. I was disappointed. Their beef satay lacked juiciness, their peanut dipping sauce could not overcome the beef jerkyness to the dish.

Thai House Express - 2008

Thai House Express was not memorable. I'd have to visit the place again just to remember.

Thai Eagle Rox - 2007

My litmus test for any Thai place would be to see how well they can cook pad thai or barbecue chicken. If I like how well they've prepared those dishes I'll usually come back and try other parts of the menu.

My verdict for Thai Eagle Rox is I'd come back to try the other dishes in their menu.

BCD Tofu House - 2007

From the BCD Tofu House menu I had the number 17. I found it unexceptional. The fish was a small deep fried mackeral. The tofu soup consisted of ...what else tofu... in a chili soup mixture with an egg...all boiling in a very hot stone bowl. There was pickled green beans, pickled dai-go and other assorted pickled items. My disappointment was because I probably expected a bigger fish or more deep fried mackerals. It has a good variety but the whole meal wasn't filling.

Maybe the Beef and Octpus Tofu Soup might have been a better choice. Oh well, there is always a next time.
