One of the reasons I love travelling for work is that I get to eat out at different restaurants, all expenses paid. 😀 What’s even better is when I have family in the city I travel to and they take me to great restaurants that they know for sure I won’t be disappointed. …

Lotus of Siam, Las Vegas, NV
It’s nice to get away from the tempting buffets once in a while when you’re in Vegas. I’ve heard from friends that Lotus of Siam is one of the best Thai restaurants ever; so I thought, “Why not?” This is where the expression “don’t judge a book by its cover” applies. You’ll probably …

Papaya Thai Bistro, Irvine, CA
I don’t know how many times I’ve been to this Diamond/Jamboree block on Jamboree and Alton Parkway. There’s everything here, everything Asian, that is! There’s BCD Tofu House, Newport Chinese Seafood, Tokyo Table Japanese Restaurant, Kula Revolving Sushi, Gubby House, and of course, Papaya Thai Bistro. This was my first time eating at …

Thai Specialty, Brea, CA
Eating at Thai Specialty, one word comes to mind: simple. It is a small restaurant with very simple decoration and simple entree dishes. Although the food is average, the service is quick and friendly. We ordered a ton of food, however. Tom yum hot pot consisted of a lot of mushrooms and maybe five …

Thai Bamboo Bistro, Irvine, CA

Thai Harmony Cafe, Diamond Bar, CA
I feel like I’m cheating on Thai Chili in Orange, but this is the closest Thai place while in the area that has 4 stars, so I thought I’d give it a try. Came here for lunch and got the lunch special menu item drunken noodle with pork for $7.65, to go. Granted, it’s a …

Jasmine Thai Cuisine, Westminster, CA
I normally like this place, but when I came here recently and ordered spicy vegetarian fried rice, I waited a really long time for it. I asked what happened to it, they informed me that they did it wrong. They put meat in it so they had to redo. Fail. When it came out, it …

Thai Chili, Orange, CA
Closest Thai restaurant in my area but I go here not just for the convenience, but the food is actually yummy. Also, partially because I like supporting small restaurants, seeing how they’re not very busy during weeknights. Artsy decor, homely atmosphere, overall clean. Staff is friendly and helpful. I highly recommend the spicy fried rice …

Banana Island, Daly City, CA
Why do many Thai restaurants insist on using words like banana, coconut, lotus, Jasmine, etc. in their restaurant name? Hmm. Anyway, I visited my cousin in the Bay Area (northern California) a few months back, and this is our go-to comfort Thai restaurant because their food is just yummy. We’ve ordered a ton of different …
