📍 Sawasdee Thai Restaurant 4250 Main St, Vancouver, BC V5V 3P9 After being recommended a million times, I finally checked out this absolute treasure of Thai food in Vancouver! And let me tell you—it did NOT disappoint. 🪴💖 Must-Try Dishes (No Regrets!): 🍛 Hor Mok Gai Curry THE SIGNATURE DISH. A whole coconut bowl?! Talk about presentation goals. Crispy chicken breast smothered in rich, creamy red coconut curry—with big chunks of tender coconut meat inside. Pro tip: Pour the curry over rice and thank me later. 🥘 Tom Yum Soup Sour & spicy lovers, this is for you. The broth is PACKED with flavor—lemongrass, galangal, and all the good stuff. Loaded with plump shrimp + mushrooms soaking up all that goodness. Small size = perfect for 1-2 people. 🥩 Crying Tiger Beef Thick-cut, char-grilled beef—crispy outside, juicy inside. Comes with a zingy green dipping sauce that cuts through the richness. Portion is huge! (Though some pieces were a tad chewy.) 🦑 Pla Meuk Yang (BBQ Squid) Squid fans, this is your jam. Perfectly grilled—chewy, smoky, and glazed with sweet-savory sauce. The Thai dipping sauce is FIRE—spicy, tangy, and addictive. 🥭 Mango Sticky Rice DESSERT MVP. Warm sticky rice drenched in warm coconut milk, paired with super sweet, melt-in-your-mouth mango. (Seasonal alert! Ask if it’s available before you get too excited.) 🧋 Thai Iced Tea Classic, creamy, and refreshing. Who can resist?! ☕️ Thai Iced Coffee Even better than the tea, IMO. Strong, sweet, and smooth. Must-order! Final Thoughts: "Thai-riffic" flavors—every dish stands out. Ambience = straight out of Thailand. 🌿 Top picks? The coconut curry & BBQ squid. Already planning my next visit!
