Really?  I tried it about a year ago, and was so horrified that I will never
return.  I have been to a number of Thai restaurants, and also routinely 
cook the food myself.  Siam seemed completely lacking authenticity, more like
an Americanized Thai restaurant; kind of like saying that Bennigans is a great
place to get Mexican.

Did I just have a bad night?  I would love to hear other comments, since 
the place is right near my house.
