Vegetarian Chicken

I heart Thai Food


... especially street food.  But sometimes the menu choice gets lost in translation, as happened today. I ordered a common dish that I have memorized from repeated ordering:  "Lat na, gai." (Noodles with gravy and chicken.) But the woman answered back with something I didn't understand.  I just agreed with her and prepared myself to enjoy whatever she served.

As I waited, I noticed a sign with only one word in English:  "Vegetarian."  So no wonder I found it difficult to get chicken! 

I enjoyed  it just as much with mushrooms and tofu, however.
