actually i think it's on average level compared to more tasty and more local food in thailand, but it close to my working space so it's ok for supper after work 💼

Was in Thailand about 10 years ago and got this in Phuket.

It's chicken, green beans, chilli and basil in the best tasting sauce I've ever eaten,

I've eaten chicken and Thai basil dishes from restaurants but it always seems to be mince and much dryer than this.

With aubergine (left), with bamboo shoots and potatoes (right).
Which one looks better to you? I prefer the one on the right.

This is a great fresh salad. The seafood was cooked perfect. The shrimp and squid were tender.

Tried this dish at a Thai Festival in Korea. The meat is fried pork and the sauce was spicy but very refreshing and super delicious. I want to try making it at home.

I ordered 15 cans for this from uber. Opened few and all of them turned out to be this colour. Is it normal!?
