🔥 This Calgary Thai Restaurant Just Skyrocketed to #1 in My Heart!
For years, Thai Sa-on held the crown as my favorite Thai spot in YYC—great ambiance and dishes, though portions were small and prices steep. White Elephant never wowed me (why the hype? Maybe just affordable?). But after seeing local influencers rave about this place on IG, I bookmarked it… and finally tried it. Verdict? Instant new #1 Thai restaurant in Calgary! I need to go back soon. Must-Orders 🏆 1️⃣ Tom Yum Soup 🍲 → Bold, tangy, spicy perfection! Huge, fresh shrimp. Medium spice = fiery for mild palates. 2️⃣ Chicken Skewers 🍢 → Grilled to juicy excellence—charred edges, killer marinade. My kid devoured two! 3️⃣ Curry & Pad Thai 🍛 → Pork curry = fatty-sweet balance. Pad Thai = wok-charred bliss. 4️⃣ Mango Sticky Rice 🥭 (Duh.) Solid But Not Star ⭐ 🐟 Whole Fish → Massive portion! Flavor = "spicy ginger beef vibes" (per my dining buddy). Skip It ✖️ 🥗 Papaya Salad → Flavor = ✅, Texture = ❌ (not crisp enough!). Key Notes 📌 🔹 RESERVE A TABLE! (Seriously, it’s packed.) 🔹 Slow service—come relaxed, not hangry. 🔹 Entrance hack: Look for "STAR" (the distillery’s sign overshadows theirs). 📍 Thai Siam Restaurant 4127 6 St NE #15, Calgary, AB T2E 6V5 Why It Dethroned the Rest 👑 ✔️ Bolder flavors than Thai Sa-on ✔️ Generous proteins (no skimpy shrimp here!) ✔️ Zero "whitewashed" dishes—authentic heat & funk #CalgaryEats #ThaiFoodHeaven #YYCFoodie #100PiecesOfCalgary #CanadianImmigrantLife #NorthAmericanEats #NoFilterFood
