Great little Thai spot in Amsterdam. Fantastic grub, sits about 20 people in an area about the size of two car parking spaces. The cooking area is the size of two phone boxes. Absolutely love it, been many many times.

Been there myself ! Great little spot...especially if you've got the munchies 🙄
Khao kha moo is a underrated classic lunch dish.
Same for pad kra pao moo with egg, minced pork is a must.
My favourite hangover dish Pad kee mao well deserve their name, drunken noodles
Thai nation may be the most foodie out there along with Japanese, something great to eat is never far away there, even in the worst boondocks

Ahhh! My favourite food 
. I lived in the far east for 5 years and visited that beautiful country, oh, a dozen times or more? Memories of a big bowl of Tom Kha Gai soup, rice and an ice-cold Singha beer for a quid on Koh Phangan beach, oh yes!

Aye, happy memories! '94 my first year, coach or train from Bangkok then ferry. Once the airport in Koh Samui opened up, that was that ... still wonderful but not perfection any more
The memories of full moon parties at Hadrin are a tad hazy, wonder why

The good news is Thai food here is often waaay less hot than over there .. a spicy seafood salad or Tom Yam soup can be thermonuclear in Thailand

We used to frequent a Thai resturant some years ago, i used to thoroughly enjoy it. The one thing i remember was...it has no great substance, it doesnt give you a full stomach feeling. ...but that may have been the particular dishes we were eating.
Chillies, the red fresh ones in some curries, it was like dipping your tongue in a deep fat frier

Pad Thai is a street food, available everywhere (road side etc) in Thailand. A basic, a Thai egg and chips. It's in the DNA, Thai's must be born knowing how to cook it! So not only is it a safe (and delicious) dish to start on your Thai food adventure with but, I reckon, also one to test a Thai restaurant out with. If they can't do a decent Pad Thai then they've probably not got the basics to do much else (that, or you don't like Thai food!) It's probably also one of those dishes where there's a multitude of variations; maybe it's technique more than recipe, I don't know. I love it, and it's one of the dishes I miss most living here in rural France.
There's a hot and spicy beef salad (yum nua) that I like to start with sometimes (warning - it is hot, no messing). The soups are generally excellent too. There's a duck dish, a salad, (name evades me) that I'm really partial to as well. Thai fish cakes (tod mun pla) are also a fave of mine. Of all national foods, Thai is probably my favourite and it did get very popular for a while (dunno if it still is).
