On this urban gourmet journey, I was joined by my homegirl and her kid, both ardent admirers of Southeast Asian fare. We totally gave in to splitting a dessert, which was surprising, considering she isn't usually into sweets. I think me and the kid convinced her ;) This twist made the whole thing more fun, sharing the sugar rush with my foodie friend, wrapping up our food adventure on a high note!
Red and Yellow Curries at Sister's Thai Restaurant
The Red Curry with chicken (as well as the yellow curry with shrimp that my friend got) was a harmony of flavors! Oohwee I love me some red curry with rice! The aromatic red curry paste perfectly complements the succulent chicken. Eggplants and bamboo shoots provide a delightful texture, while sweet basil and bell pepper bring a refreshing tang to the rich coconut milk base. This mouthwatering delight is an absolute must-try for any food lover, including those new to Thai cuisine. Red curry is always my go-to ;)
