Sao Paulo 🇧🇷 Thai food | This is still the best value for money 🇹🇭

🏠 Thai E-San Restaurante Tailandês 🗺️ Rua Barão de Iguape, 373 - Liberdade, São Paulo - SP, 01507-001 🍲 A Thai Feast That Breaks the Table (Literally) This Liberdade staple serves portions so massive, our table struggled to fit all dishes. The Tom Yum soup was a seafood goldmine—every ladle scooped up plump shrimp, curly squid, and mussels like a maritime treasure hunt. 🍍 Menu Highlights (and Lowlights) Must-Order: ✅ Pineapple Fried Rice: Bursting with shrimp, squid, and cashews, it’s a sweet-savory symphony. ✅ Tom Yum Soup: Extra spicy-sour (warning: clears sinuses!). Perfect for bold flavor fiends. Skip These: ⛔ Meat Skewers: Tough and tasteless, though the side salad was a redeeming crunch. ⛔ Pad Thai: Cloyingly sweet—even the beef tasted like candy. ⛔ Thai Iced Tea: So sugary, my friend diluted it with water (pro tip: ask for "menos açúcar"). Neutral Territory: 🟢 Spicy Glass Noodle Salad: Decent appetizer, but skip if ordering other starters. 📦 Portion Control? Never Heard of It Four of us couldn’t finish half the dishes—two entire plates went home in doggy bags. The kitchen clearly subscribes to the "more is more" philosophy: Fried rice portions could feed a small village Curry bowls are the size of soup tureens Even the side of peanuts comes in a mountainous dish 🅿️ Practicalities for Feasters Parking: Across the street, 20 BRL for a 2-hour feast (they close at 9 PM). Realistic Cost: ~70 BRL/person if you don’t overorder (we blew it on 87 BRL each). 🏠 Atmosphere: Authentically Unfussy Think plastic tablecloths, 墙上的泰文海报，and the hum of a busy kitchen—no frills, just real deal Thai grub. Brazilians and Chinese expats rub shoulders here, all united by the battle to conquer those mammoth plates. 🍴 Final Verdict: Come Hungry, Leave Humble This isn’t fine dining—it’s a deliciously messy, wallet-friendly dive where portions reign supreme. Just remember: bring stretchy pants, a doggy bag, and a group to tackle the culinary Everest that is Thai E-San. #ThaiFood #TomYumLove #PortionControlFail #LiberdadeCuisine
