This was my second trip to Mai Thai on Brady Street. The restaurant is striking with its Gulf of Siam colored walls and gorgeous photographs of the islands of Thailand such as Phuket. (See my very first post dated 6.10.2010.)
Their Tom Yum soup is the best I have ever had. The summer roll was crispy on the outside, fresh and sweet on the inside. They have great lunch specials that include: an appetizer, soup, and entree. They change the choices for their lunch specials regularly. This time I had a garlic beef entree. Our waitress asked how spicy I wanted it on a scale of 1 to 4. I said I wanted it very spicy...a high 4. The dish came out spicy but not nearly spicy enough for me! I asked for additional hot pepper seasoning. She then told me that they can make it spicier but usually their customers don't realize how much spice they can handle. Next time I'm ordering at least an 8 out of 4 heat-level!
The food was very flavorful...lots of layers of sweet, sour, salty, spicy...delicious! The decor is ridiculous...I love the silk pillows and sheer white curtains dividing the tables. I will definitely go back again and again!
