Because

a) You could be missing out on some other delicious dishes.

b) You could burn yourself out on pad gai.

Hey, I'm just looking out for you.

Getting burnt-out on pad gai would be the find-food equivalent of getting "really fucking tired of having good sex".

But what is "pad gai"

Obviously, some kind of asian food dish, but other than that?

Pad gai, as I have it, consists of the following, from bottom to top:

-Lettuce
-Rice noodles
-Little bits of fried egg
-Chicken
-Carrot noodles

Now, I don't care so much for the carrot noodles or the lettuce, but the chicken is great and the rice noodles are <b>amazing</b>. The egg is also a nice touch. It's seasoned very well, and leaves me feeling very satisfied. It's exceptionally hard to describe it, but it is <b>excellent</b>. It's Thai - any respectable Thai restaurant will have it. Busara's is exceptionally good.

It also has little chopped onions...celery...something green other than the lettuce.

Yeah, it IS pretty damn good. I just wish I could remember what I ordered as an appetizer.

I thought there was a motherfuckin' PAD GAI! thread.

Nic, I know you haven't been here long, but I am 99.999% certain that you are aware of how quickly posts careen out of control.

Nic Name · 01-14-2002, 02:30 PM

oh, i know. i just thought, maybe, dham thought he was on the other thread, which he started for this discussion.

and i thought it humorous that the original thread was called motherfuckin' pad gai! which is about the way i feel about it, now.

i agree that the conversational thread thing is a good thing for community.

but if every thread turns into some kinda rant for anyone's passion for one particular Thai dish ...

it's hard to stay involved in the Cellar if going back to any thread for follow-up on any subject, nets one a dialogue which could be really valuable on the thread with that topical heading.

isn't that the point?

well, i think you know what i mean.

You had moo ping as an appetizer. I had chicken satay. Jenni had golden triangles as an appetizer and Panang Tofu as a meal. You and I, of course, had pad gai.

P.S. - happy birthday cellar!

Is that what it was? Yeah...that was delicious. Although, the wooden skewers were a bit of a pain.

If the stuff is sooooo good, this idea has to be worth a fortune to the next Dave Thomas.

Why don't you Pad Gai wankers do something creative with all that computer hardware,
Internet savvy, and pent up passion for pad gai ... open a damn online pad gai restaurant
instead of just jerkin' off about it here and wastin' space?

I challenge dham to create a site dedicated to it.

jaguar · 01-14-2002, 06:09 PM

calm down nic, where'd the hand of kindness go?

Nic Name · 01-14-2002, 06:20 PM

I'm calm ... i just thought the pad gai guys must be bored with all the terrorism, politics, and cigarette smoke blowin' around here, and were hoping for a fight to break out.

Oh yeah, Hapyp Grithday!

Nic Name · 01-14-2002, 06:28 PM

Anyway, I think Sycamore has the right idea, and that post about the domain names was a bit of a challenge by me too, not just to dhamsaic (Sycamore should help.)

I'll be happy to hear all about the pad gai,when they've got a site up at padgai.com that we can all drive traffic to.

In the meantime, when they feel the urge to rant about pad gai, maybe they could work it off on the site development.

I bet it will be fantastic.

OMG, I'm sounding like a Management Consultant. How does it know?
