location: chai's thai restaurantPINEAPPLE FRIED RICE +++
++++
1. too wet
2. who cooks pineapple rice with canned pineapples?
3. did not taste authentic
4. an odd taste of curry powder
however, still edible hence the rating.

MASSAMAN CURRY ++++
+++
xy hated it since it was sweet but i felt that it wasn't too bad
the peanuts were a good addition though, complimented the curry well.

FRIED BANANA CINNAMON WITH ICE CREAM +++++++
PERFECTO!!this makes everything worth it!!
i would just go to chai thai simply for this!
one of the best desserts i have ever had -
the warm fried banana with a crispy cinnamon crust perfectly compliments the cold ice-cream and strawberries topped off with chocolate syrup

THE BEST EGGROLLS IN THE WORLD ++++++
+
and it stays true to its name!
oishi!!
comforted us, dateless women on valentine's day - boohoo...

PHO +++
++++
not fantastic, i've tasted better.
stock was more bland and noodles became soggy too quickly.
upside was that the beansprouts were fresh,
though it would be nice if the roots were removed.
BEEF AND POTATOES +++++++
just a regular stir fry.
sauce had a nutty taste to it.
could be better.
SWEET AND SOUR CHICKEN +++++++
too sweet, even on valantine's day.
chicken was somewhat soggy and the sauce had a watery consistency.
maybe they should thicken it and balance out the sweetness (sour stuff?)

SESAME CHICKEN +++
++++
the chicken turned out to be more like a sweet sour stir fry with sesame sprinkles.
nothing special.

ROAST DUCK +++++++
nice seasoning, though a little too salty.
