Fast-forward a bit and we're back from from our trip to Nicaragua. Nothing makes me happier than coming back home after being away and getting to order from all of my favorite restaurants all over again! You gotta go away in order to come back!
...so I got to rearrange the furniture and put my green chair up real close in front of the TV. Haha. Check out my COMMAND CENTER setup: remote, spring rolls, two kinds of M&Ms, cell phone, game controller. THUMBS UP!
After checking in and catching a quick nap, we headed over to Mai Kaidee's for some lunch. Here's the bananas and black rice covered in coconut milk that we got for dessert! Yum!
After the movie, we went back to the vegetarian restaurant we'd eaten at the previous afternoon and had ourselves another epic feast for less than $2 USD. Man, was that place tasty.
Here's me about to lapse into a food coma. We both totally gorged ourselves and the whole meal for the two of us came to 60 Baht (about $1.25 USD). After lunch, we walked around for a bit and decided to head back to our room to read and nap until the afternoon cooled down a bit.
Phuket is famous for its vegetarian food! As soon as we'd finished dropped off our bags and freshening up, we headed out to get our veggie lunch on at one of the many local restaurants reviewed in our guide book.
Friday morning I took the Fatty out for some delicous pad thai to thank him for helping me move, then I headed downtown to meet up with Niki so we could do some...
Saturday night I met up with David and Miye (my favoritest married couple) in Nolita and we headed out to Hoodside, Queens to check out Sripraphai, which a Thai friend of David's had told him was the "hands down the best authentic Thai food in NYC."
David's friend ended up being right on the money. The food was totally
out of this world (and reeeediculously cheap). If you live in NYC, hop
on the 7 train and make a special trip. It's worth it. Here's
a Google link to a bunch of reviews of the place (apparently, it's highly regarded
by lots of people).
Later that night, the Fatty felt like "uhhh, maybe a little Thai, dude?" So we headed over to this joint on Newbury Street. And then after dinner we headed over to Boston Billiards, the place where we'd be surprising Seth.
