Last week, I was feeling very tired after a long day at work, and bummed out because I had just lost my phone in a cab (FAIL). So on the way to the subway to go allllll the way home to Brooklyn, I stopped into a tiny hole in the wall Thai place that I had never seen before called "East Village Thai" for some takeout. Even though it's not Zagat rated (Paris Gellar would certainly be disappointed), Yelp users give it 4 out of 5 stars, which surprises me a lot in retrospect because what I got didn't even taste like Thai food. I was in a comfort-food kind of mood, which for me means Pad See Ew, and there were absolutely no Thai flavors present; actually, it tasted very Chinese-food-y to me. Which isn't a bad thing, except for when you really want Thai food. So basically I got this reasonably priced takeout (which was pretty much the only option bc the place is itty-bitty and sort of dark) and waited 40 mins on the subway and then finally got home to eat it and it was more like mediocre Chinese food. BUMMED OUT!
