Hi People:

How is the Thai Restaurant on the corner of Walnut and Bellefone
, in terms of quality of food and cost? Does any body know of some 
other Thai Restaurant in Shadyside/Squirrel Hill ?

Thankx,
-P.

I hated the Thai Place.  The Tom Yum Gai used tomatoes(?!), cheap
mushrooms, no cilantro, and no visible lemon grass.  I thought they
had brought the wrong kind of soup.  The waiter convinced me that what
they had brought was indeed Tom Yum Gai because nothing else described
on the menu remotely resembled what was in front of me.

The stuff is never hot enough, despite asking for an "8" and "10" on
their hotness scale.  

I'm saving my Thai food money for plane tickets to San Francisco.

On the other hand, I really like the Oriental Kitchen on Semple in
Oakland and the Golden House on Penn in the Strip.  I had squid with
black bean sauce at both places.  I think Golden House was slightly
better; killer hot and mighty tasty.  Golden House also sells moon
cakes.  But don't go there on a date, it's a dive.
