I love Thai food yet unfortunately, I can never seem to get my fix for Thai food here in Manila. Last night, Vic and I tried this newly opened restaurant in Trinoma - the Mango Tree Bistro - and it turns out that the place offers Thai cuisine! Well, we got our usual favorites - from Tom Yung Goong to Khao Phad - yet the taste was pretty ordinary. I don't know if the cooks here 'Filipinize' the taste to suit the Filipino taste buds, but I'd still rather go to Bangkok to get my Thai food fix. I think the cooks substitute the spiciness too much because in Thailand, I could always feel that my ears are burning from the hot spices! But here, I rarely experience that.
