Hey Betty,
so I fell into your website a few times, and this once I’m browsing. Girl, you have some amazing recipes, really.
As most of your international fans, I too have the “Lost in translation” issue. This dish up here sounds amazing and easy to make, but the various sauces I’m not familiar with. Any thoughts?
Thank you!
Hi Betty,
We have some of the best Thai food in the Northest right here in Connecticut and I have been looking for a recipe that matches the great Thai chefs of this area.
I CAN HONESTLY SAY THIS RECIPE IS BETTER THAN ANY DRUNKEN NOODLE I HAVE HAD IN ANY RESTURAUNT!!
When I took the first bite, I just couldn’t believe how good the dish was. It is so hard to duplicate what the great chefs create, but this recipe exceeded any and all expectations. Thanks!!
Oh yeah!! I can make this. Thank god, I won’t need a nuclear wok to do so either! Thanks, AB!!
Thanks for dropping by my site, Eddie! I’m honored ;)
Oh to have a Pow Wok! When Jet lifts that thing up it’s like looking into the gate of hell!
