Munchie Adventure: Bua Thai Cuisine, Vancouver

Since our first choice had a long wait, we decided to wander the streets in search of another place to fill our tummies after bowling! Couldn't decide between this or its neighbor, but since it was rated 1% higher on Urbanspoon, it won. Quite small and empty in here, but they could accommodate our party so all good. One person manning the little store... cute, but he wasn't very attentive and seemed engrossed in something behind the counter most of the time. xD

So... I couldn't decide on what to order, so I ended up just thinking of a random number and hoped it would be good. Should not do that ever again.

But anyways, look at the cute utensil wrappings! =D It's like they're ready for bed ^-^

Back to food. I ordered their Thai Noodle Soup ($8.95) in hopes that I could finish this and sneak in a dessert (which didn't happen). The soup had a satay base, only very minor (quite watered down), but I liked the taste. There were options as to what to have in it: chicken, pork, beef, or tofu. I got the beef and those pieces were small and tough! Did not like that. Noodles were chewy and good. This lacked a "wow" factor to it.

Others ordered curry and seems like it was a better choice than mine =P The Pad Thai I thought of ordering was a ketchup-y based one (according to YA), which isn't the kind I prefer. And chopsticks. I learned I really need chopsticks for my noodles because forking it was so hard ><" 50/50 on this place, too close to Kishimoto for me to come back haha!
