Up my block and across one street there is a Thai restaurant named Wave Thai. It is located in the center of the block, but since it has been zagot rated for the past four years allot of people know about it. As you walk up to the restaurant there is floor to ceiling windows . When you walk into the restaurant there is a faint red dimmed lighting. There is a Buddha statue sitting on top of a water fountain that greets you as soon as you walk in. The waitress asks how many? I tell her 3 for dinner, we were seated immediately. My friends and I walk down the narrow aisle surrounded by wooden tables. Along the benches of our table are red and blue satin pillows with oriental symbols and writing for you to sit on. My friends and I order the tea, spring rolls, and curry puffs. The appetizers all come four to a plate. The spring rolls are about four inches long and two inches wide filled with cabbage, carrots, and lettuce with a plum dipping sauce. The curry puffs are three inches wide and round, they are filled with potato mashed up with curry deep fried in a puff pastry shell, this comes with a cucumber dipping sauce. They were delicious and just enough to keep you wanting more.
For dinner I ordered Chicken Pad Thai and my two friends ordered Thai Peanut Princess. The Chicken Pad Thai consists of sauteed rice noodles, bean curd, bean sprouts, scallions, pieces of egg, peanuts, and chicken. It was absolutely delicious and very filling. My friends were also very happy with there selection of Thai Peanut Princess, this consisted of steamed broccoli and chicken in a Thai peanut sauce. It was nice to experience a different culture for a night, and eat food I wouldn't normally eat. The bill came to about twenty dollars a person, which is a inexpensive night out in the city to embark on a food adventure into a different country. We all left the restaurant feeling great, completely satisfied and cannot wait to go back.
