Yesterday I went to training, drove on the San Mateo bridge, and I finally got Instagram. I was planning to go back to work and have lunch there but the Thai mosquito must have bitten me because I was itching for some Thai food! Plus I wanted to celebrate my first step towards independency from other social media places. Looked up some places near by where I was at, I was getting my bundt cake on at the time, and this was seriously on my way back home.
Jasmine Blossom is located on a busy block so parking may get difficult depending the time of day. After parking I walked in and I was shocked because on the outside it was nice and on the inside it was REALLY nice. So modern, so chic, so cozy. I loved it! The waiter was super attentive and gave me a corner seat which was great for me to people watch for a little bit before I started chowing down. Nah! I was really playing Tiny Tower. . . I can't help myself; pixelated games are too cute to pass up sometimes.
I ordered crab ragoon, pad thai with chicken, and a thai tea. Verdict on the crab ragoon: in short, I can and have made this at home before. It tasted as though I made it myself (I should totally blog about the recipe, I have now mentally noted that). The price is around what I would charge myself but knowing how much the ingredients cost it's almost like a peeled off band-aid, stings a little but you get over it quickly. Next was the pad thai. WARNING: Proceed with caution, can be too hot to handle, but it's super satisfying. If you don't mind sacrificing a couple of taste buds then by all means get down with yourself! Thai tea is thai tea at this point. It tasted similar to other thai teas I have had before. It wasn't a hot mess but it wasn't foodgasm overload. It was a compliment to the meal as well as my server. He was super attentive and filled my water and checked up on me and he was consistent with everyone else.
