Eim Dee Thai — Restaurant in New York

the best!!!!!!!!!

i’m working on a theory here......and would love to get a response.......but this must be the same place as note thai? perhaps an new owner? perhaps an updated idea?

a little backstory for the readers in the back: at this location, up until a few months ago, this little shop had a different name and thus a different sign: it was called “note thai” and was in every way the very best thai restaurant and my favorite one too. now, today, the name has changed, yet major moments on the menu have stayed the same. the width of the pad thai noodles are the same (quite thin), the infamous (and delightfully unique) pumpkin curry still lives on the menu, and they still sell an item exclusively for “an angel.”

somethings have changed though—they deliver farther away on seamless now, have gotten rid of the lover’s and dreamer’s curries, and added some new items, including a new item that made me cry tears of joy upon first taste (i now dream of pumpkin fries!!!!) and of course, the whole matter of the name.

regardless, in any regard, order the things mentioned above (pumpkin curry, pad thai, pumpkin fries, as well as pineapple curry, papaya salad, peanut curry, crispy pork belly, pineapple fried rice, thai iced tea, and really truly anything. they will never disappoint!) and prepare to be delighted and satiated in every which way. i love this place!!!!!!!!! no matter what she calls herself....

I couldn't eat here. I walked in and the one person behind the counter looked at us like he didn't know why we were there. Because of his face I asked if they were open. He said yes... and then I had to ask where his menu was. The thing that drove me away was the district smell. It smelled like a toilet, mixed with cigarette smoke and a homeless man. I have cooked with Thai ingredients and have been to Thailand, and so I know that fish sauce smells bad, but this wasn't the food. The place looks extremely unsanitary. they had a deep freezer right behind the man and it was a white freezer, but so dirty the top was black. even after all that I was ready to give it a chance, but started feeling sick from the smell...

One of my favorite places to eat locally. I always get the Chicken Pad See Ew and my girlfriend always gets the Chicken Volcano. Today I had the sweet coconut sticky rice for the first time and it was delicious. I always end up spending more than I planned on, but I also always have enough leftovers for a second meal so I think it balances out. I do add my own spicy Thai chili sauce at home, not sure if they offer any (I haven’t asked) but they...
