Lunch at Siam Cuisine

Hello all friends and readers. Today for lunch I was craving some shrimp 🦐 in some kind of form. I actually googled shrimp near me, haha. I didn't want to have it in fried form so that eliminated pretty much all the fast food places. I decided on a Thai restaurant that I have been to before. I think I wrote about it a few months ago, I tried thier Buffett back than.

Before I get to the food let me show case this place a little bit. This turned out to be hard because I did not feel comfortable doing so. The owner (guy) was like everywhere I was so I did miss out on a few other things I wanted to capture.

When you first walk in there's a tiny area where you can buy things if you want. They included some tote bags (is that right ladies?), shirts, straw hats, and some towels.

The appearance of the place isn't too bad. Some nice cultural pieces. The walls aren't too overloaded and it had a nice balance. I wish I had the opportunity to take some more pictures of the two small statues because there was some other cool things behind them. I just had to settle for a picture I took from my table.

My waiter was the owner I don't think he was the cook today though, lol. I told him I wanted a spring roll and the Shrimp Pad Thai. He than asked how spicy do I want it from a scale from 1 to 10. I paused slightly thinking five but I know Thai food can be spicy so I said 3. I don't need to catch on fire, haha.

My springs rolls came out was thinking I would just get one but I got there. The third is off to side with a bite taken off it. I almost forget I was going to do a blog on this, haha. They were very tasty crispy vegetable rolls. They came out super hot meaning they were fresh.

The main lunch course Shrimp Pad Thai. It's stir fried rice noodles, shrimp, sprouts, chopped green onions, and an unknown sauce. The sauce was just a little sweet not over bearing.

There had to be something else in it kicking up the spice level because I had three glasses of water before I finished it. Remember I chose 3 right? On my spicy scale it felt like a 7 πŸ₯΅. I'm glad I didn't say a higher number before. The food was really good even though I took a drink after every other bite. It may not look like a lot but I had a hard time finishing it and felt full afterwards. The thing that was disappointing is there was maybe only 10 pieces of shrimp. I'd give it a 7 out of 10 not considering my shrimp craving!!

Well ladies and gentlemen lunch is usually quick and so is this blog πŸ˜‚ Take care, be safe, and I love you all ❀️

It seems that you have a great lunch, my friend. But it's just so sad for me that I am not allowed to eat kinds of seafood because it triggers my asthma. Take care my friend and God bless you everyday!

The bags, hats in the first picture are looking like dressing room. Hehehe. Secondly, the walls are really balanced means as you have Already mentioned the walls were not much loaded and were showcasing cultural side of Thai. Moreover, Thank To God! That you haven't replied to waiter by saying 5 percent spicy out of ten because it will really put you on fire. As your 3 turned into 7 πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚.

Similar these noodles are lot thicker. Spring rolls wrapper is super thin but taste similar to lumpia. I'm gearing for a Filipino restaurant blog soon probably post on Hive.

Very interesting that you have been attended by the owner, did you ask him anything about why the food was so spicy? hahaha I guess not. Thai food is exotic, although it is not my favorite, I have a preference for Korean food, the banana pancakes are very impressive.

It's great that they have a place to buy souvenirs at the entrance, quite intelligent on their part, although nowadays businesses take advantage of monetizing everything they can, a symptom of the crisis or rather a symptom of the need to obtain more profit haha.

Thanks for sharing this culinary episode, I found it interesting. And grateful for all the love and support you give us Bob =)

Usually it's other food like candy or some kind of snack. Oh no I didn't ask why it was spicy because that is usually a staple of Thai food plus didn't want to look like a wuss, haha. Thanks friend I'm glad to help a lot of you out :)

Right!! There was a large blanket at the top of the ceiling hanging down and was that of the owner in Thai culture clothing . He's a white guy 6'4 in his late 60's sporting a good beer belly. I wanted to take a picture and show but how embarrassing would that be if he caught me taking πŸ€£πŸ˜‚πŸ€£

Was going to do hive but my plates were cut in picture. That probably would have got frowns. All these pictures were combat photos, lol
