Pantip Thai Food - 2008

At Pantip I had their seafood soup. I was a descent hot & sour soup. Their beef satay was dry. Overall, I'd rate it as okay.

Aloha Hawaiin BBQ - 2008

Aloha Hawaiin BBQ is no longer in business. Is it like a fad that comes and goes, or is it Darwinian selection of the fittest? No matter, they'll be others to take its place.

Thai Star Cuisine - 2008

The craziest salad I ever had was at Thai Star Cuisine. It was the Pra Duk Poo - crunchy catfish salad. A large quantity deep fried cat fish flakes (kinda like pop corn chicken...but fish) on a bed of finely julienned carrots, cucumbers, and lettuce with a sweet, vinegar and fish sauce dressing. The texture was pure crunchiness and the vinaigrette dressing made me pucker. Certainly, the most unique and interesting salad dish I've ever tried. Would I eat it again? Yes, I would.

Nipa Hut

22122 Sherman Way Suite 101,
Canoga Park, CA 91303


Cafeteria style lunch or dinner dining, usually lunch. The best variety. If I had to rank the Flip places in the valley it would be: 1. Nipa Hut 2. Island Pacific 3. That other place?
