Order their Chicken Basil and ask for it Thai Hot.  I think part of the problem
is, we order "Thai Hot" for things that not even the Thai people would eat hot,
and so they cook it up, add pepper, and serve it -- probably thinking "Ugh!"

I usually make it a point to ask the server (if Thai) how s/he would eat it at
home, and if the answer is "hot," I order it hot.  If not, not.

  TC> Thai Luang is much more to my taste.  The thai-hot is _Spicy_.  The
  TC> appetizers are good (Crying Tiger.... yumm).  I haven't had a bad dish
  TC> there yet. They never seem crowded, are they doing good business?
 
Haven't been busy when I've passed by.  Nice place, I liked it a lot.
