king of the radishes!

my first thought upon seeing this box was that it contained 1 huge radish. superior in size and taste, and ruler of all other radishes. 

my second thought was that the radish king had been kidnapped from it's box.


thirdly, i wonder if the radish king knows princess tomato from princess tomato in the salad kingdom.

in the meantime...

right right- another post that's not so about salad. i have a terrif salad spot coming up, but (please see title) i just had to post this: my latest attempt at some pad kee mao variation! 


this one was really good, and real close to the taste i associate with the dish!

plentiful on the chili, but ran a little short on basil. also, i threw in some chin kong choy and skipped on the bean sprouts.


the only not-awesome point of the experience was watching a poorly dressed hipster try to hit on the cashier at A Grocery. he went so far as to inform her that he "even eat(s) with chopsticks"...searching for love in all the wrong places. actually, i don't know that this idiot has a soul-mate waiting anywhere, and he definitely didn't make me feel great about being the next white guy in line. 


oh well, at least i can dress myself and cook...and just for full disclosure, i ate this food with a fork. jus sayin'.
