You can't really claim to have eaten at a Thai restaurant in NY unless you've eaten at Sripraphai. I don't know what type of food to call the rest but it's not Thai. And, how did they all end up with the same menu anyway?
Sripraphai has delicious food. It's my second time back and I'm willing to leave Manhattan for it. Our table of 3 (Lon, Steve, and I), shared a Thai salad with peanut sauce, the green mango salad with chicken, squid, and shrimp (spicy and flavorful), the soft shell crab with papaya salad, the catfish with Thai eggplant, and the noodles with chicken and squid. The green mango salad was my favorite but everything was so good! You can't even find these dishes at the Thai places all over manhattan. And, you can't get this level of spice either.
Their prices have gone up a bit but there's still so much on that menu well worth coming back to try. I've never disliked a dish their yet!

You bloggers in NYC are so lucky- there is so much to choose from and ethnic food everywhere(I guss the downside that there is lots of opportunity for bad food, too!) In the Tidewater area you have to do a lot of searching to find good ethnic food that is not Americanized. We are left to just make our own. Thanks for your glimpse of life in the big city! |
