Yim Thai Street Food — Restaurant in Mexico City

I’ll be honest, I didn’t even try the food. We got there at 1:29pm, they open at 1:30pm. We were able to take the last table available, the other 4 tables (with 2 people each) were already taken and were waiting for 1:30pm to start ordering. Then the waiter came and said that they had no chicken, no beef and no tofu (so just pork and shrimp for proteins) and no coffee. 5 min later he came to get our order and said our dishes would take 30-40mins since the place was packed (as I said, 4 tables with 2 people each).

Then the Thai Jerky, even though is “jerky” it was imposible to eat, it was extremely tough. Like it was overcooked more than dried. And the didn’t have sticky rice. The Kuay Teaw Hang was cold, tasteless, the meat was chewy. And even we asked for very spicy it was mild.
