Dear Fork,
I went to Thai Tree restaurant for the first time. They are brand new, just open for less than a month. It's a small restaurant located in the north bay, to be exact 6656 Alhambra Ave, Martinez, CA 94553. It was so hot so I wanted to sit outside for light breeze, very light, perfect. (Not to mention, it was nearly 100 Degree).
I love finding new Thai spots, and that I get to compare these dishes to other restaurants, is just fun and fulfilling. I know for the fact that Thai food is hard to make, with all those basic ingredients themselves, ugh! That's why I'm glad there are so many good Thai restaurants around.
Pad Thai Beef
It's not typical for Thai people here to order Pad Thai here in the US, but I did. It was because I was craving for a pan-fried noodle dish. LOL Why not? Thai Tree made them really well, very authentic, and full of flavors. Love the taste of tamarind sauce. Tip: Ask for chili sauce!
Ocean Bomb
Ocean Bomb was BOMB.COM...This is on their special menu ($15 If I remember correctly) It was spicy, yet so good!! This kind of dishes go really well together with rice. This was served on a sizzling hot stone plate. It's a red curry with mixed seafood (fish, calamari, scallop). YUM. I have to thank Thai Three for beautifying the dishes for us photo-perfect!
I was so happy to see you, thanks for making my meal wonderful.
xoxo,
Spoon
