	+ * I think that including the price of Pad Thai is a good indicator of how the pricing for the rest of the menu will follow. I would say that having the price of a hamburger is a good idea, too, since it would set a metric regarding how the restaurant prices their food, and can be used as a standard for comparison to like restaurants. --["Users/JoePomidor"]

- EDIT: - In Thailand, it is perfectly fine to use chopsticks for dishes with long noodles. For example, Pad Thai has long and thin rice noodle which is somewhat suitable to be eaten with chopsticks. In contrast, Pad See Ew uses thick and fat noodle ("Chow Fun" in Chinese) and could be eaten with a fork or a spoon in combination. The Thais prefer to use spoon with rice as their rice is flakier and softer than the japanese counterpart.	+ Chopsticks are not typically used for most dishes in Thailand, so don't be surprised to when you get a funny look upon requesting them.

	+ ------ + ''2007-06-30 21:33:51'' [[nbsp]] I love Thai food and in all truth, I really do like all of 5 of the Thai restaurants in town. But, if I must choose... ["2k Thai Food"] loses some points for the trying-too-hard atmosphere. I like the way that ["Thai Recipes"] always asks if you want your tofu fried or soft. ["Thai Nakorn"] has some dishes that lean more towards Chinese, so if you're not sure what you want (or if you have a mixed party that can't make up its mind), it's a good choice. ["Sophia's Thai Kitchen"] has that close-to-["Campus"] advantage, so it's probably my favorite for lunch. But for dinner, I'm leaning toward ["Thai Bistro"]. Hard to say why, other than the generic: quality ingredients that taste good. Try the sweet and sour chicken with mango. (Here's a hint: it's not that deep batter fried stuff with gloppy pink sauce). And they do get extra points for the nice outdoor patio where you can bring your ["Dogs" dog]. So, that's my preference for now, with the right to change my mind in the future! --["Users/CovertProfessor"]
