I could not bear to waste all that food so the Spicey chicken I gave to a friend who is a human garbage can and kept the Swimming rama and after adding water, lime, sherry and basil to it, it was edible. I will check out Jamjuree soon. Another Thai place that is right up the street where BF and I live (in the U Dist) is a place called The Little Thai, that place was very impressive. The wide noodles to die for. They serve beer and wine which is a big plus as well. I have not seen any new reviews of your visits to restaurants latley. Do you have a "sign up" for this sight, I would love to join. Also I have a computer question for you that is pretty retarded but I am a retard when it comes to computers. I know this is the wrong thread to ask a question on computers do you have a site where I can go to to ask a computer question? Thanks.

They have two chefs: A and George. You got A unfortunately. You now need to call Thai Tom in advance and ask if George is cooking. Otherwise don't go. You should try <a href="http://kennyw.com/food/254" rel="nofollow">Jamjuree</a> on 15th -- consistently tasty. Patricia, unfortunately I too have had this experience at Thai Tom recently.

We got orders (I ordered the swimming rama, BF ordered spicy chicken to go). NP, the staff was great yadda yadda. When we got home to eat was a whole new galaxy. Neither of use could eat the shit. Too sweet like they cooked everything in syrup, LOTS of syrup, then the after taste was plain salt, there was no taste of the actual dish, nada!! We both are no newbies to Thai food so perhaps maybe that they were having a "bad wok day"? I hear so much in reviews that people prefer to like when "Tom is actually "up to bat at the wok", but shouldn't it be wise for Tom to teach the others to cook decent edible food upon his adsents? As soon as the old taste buds recover I will give it another chance. Kenny I don’t know what happened but my BF went there after all the hype from everyone.

I have been a rabid fan of Thai Thom for many a year now. I'm a little disappointed that Spicy Broccoli went out in the first round but I will defer to the decision of the judges. Some things can only be resolved through combat. The bracket idea is f’ing awesome. I have been a rabid fan of Thai Thom for many a year now.

Today began round 2, and I expect the last few meals to come out in rapid succession. This is an inexact science, as 3 chefs rotate through Thai Tom’s burners. For example, whle #10 was a clear favorite based on previous tastings, today it fell short. Was it due to the change in chefs? A bad delivery of eggplant? Who knows, but it just didn’t have the gusto needed to hold up against the sassy Swimming Rama’s peanut sauce.

Marriage + honeymoon put a delay on the face-off. I have my suspicions though (so far #10 and #16 look like the top seeds remaining). I’m updating this post as we progress.
