MAILE'S THAI BISTRO - TAKEOUT

DINNER AT HOME

Stressful days and I was in the office before three am on this day.  By 5:00 pm, I had no mojo to cook so I asked my Wife to pick up some takeout on the way home.  She asked what I wanted and I said Maile's Thai food.  Thai Spicy Clams, Cold Tofu, Spring Rolls, Sweet and Sour Shrimp and Pad Thai Chicken.  Pretty tasty stuff and just what I needed before retiring early.

Did not plan for dinner so decided to order takeout using a delivery app.  Food from Thai Lao arrived on time and looking pretty good.  I immediately went for the Tom Yum Spicy Lemongrass Soup.  Loved it.  Ordered with medium spice level and it was perfect.  Great flavor and heat.  The Thai Beef Salad was a huge disappointment.  The meat was a bit sour and the salad needed a better dressing.  Uneatable for me and my Wife.  The Spring Rolls were pretty tasteless and not as good as say Maile's Thai or Hale Vietnam.  I liked the Mixed Vegetables with Chicken.  Vegetables were fresh and there was a lot of Chicken in a tasty sauce.

Had some family members visiting from California and wanted to introduce them to Maile and her food.  Told them that Maile's was one of our favorite restaurants on Oahu and by the time we were done with dinner here, it was their favorite too.  In fact they were raving about Maile's food the entire week and one of them said it was her favorite meal on Oahu or Kauai.  We ordered a few of our favorite Maile dishes like Cold Tofu, Spring Rolls, Chicken Pad Thai and Spicy Seafood Combo.  Maile suggested the Thai Loco Moco so we tried it.  Oh my goodness.  This is so good and will be on our favorite menu every time we come back.  Also went with the Panang Curry because the table next to use with four guys ordered four Panang Curry for the four of them.  It is now my favorite Curry.  Love Maile and the food!

I really enjoy having lunch at the Siam Garden Cafe.  You can check this blog for review of previous visit.  What I like most is that you can get in and out for lunch very quickly.  It is amazing how fast they get the food out.  Perfect for a quick business lunch.  We always eat family style and order dishes that the entire table shares.  On this visit there were four of us enjoying a variety of dishes.  We started with Stuffed Chicken Wings.  These are good, but I have had them at other Thai restaurants and they serve the wings with hot sauce and peanut sauce. I love this combination of flavors.  At Siam Garden they serve them with a sweet chili sauce.  You have to ask for hot sauce here.  It is not something they place on the table.  The Spring Rolls here are not cut in half and not served with lettuce so you can wrap them like a burrito.  We always ask for a plate of lettuce so we can place the Spring Roll on the lettuce, add the cucumber and sauce and eat like a wrap.  This is the best.  Again you need hot sauce to put this over the top.  I love the Pad Thai Chicken at Siam Garden.  Always delicious.  The Sweet and Sour Shrimp with Vegetables is also good and so is the Sliced Beef with Green Beans.  Everyone loved the Chicken Larb.  Finely diced chicken that you wrap in cabbage leaf.  Siam Garden delivers on good food and service.  It is a great place to enjoy a really good fast business lunch.
