Thai Food Cafe' **FULL VEGAN MENU**

My favorite new Thai restaurant is in North Portland but it looks like Thailand. Meow is the owner and she is super sweet. I asked her husband Thom what he recommends and he went and asked her. Cool, egalitarian and highly considerate. I nearly died from seafood when I was eleven so I couldn't try any of the vegan seafood dishes.

Oh yeah, big huge letters on the front menu page "FULL VEGAN MENU" so I felt really comfortable, even more so after talking with Thom and Meow a little bit. I'm not worried about any crossover omnivore food getting into the vegan, they are very respectful.

We had the vegan Drunken Noodles with pepper beeph and the Evil Jungle Noodle with chikun both number two on the hotness scale from 1 to 4. They were both very delicious but we wish they would stop calling it "chicken" or "Beef" since they aren't and we think those things are pretty gross.

Two is hot, hot, hot! But not so hot that you can't enjoy all the flavors swirling around. The arrangements were very pretty and highly colorful. We both preferred the beeph over the chx but at one point Melinda spit some into her napkin cause she thought it was real- its not. But that was pretty damn funny. The chx is too dense and needs to be chewed alot- according to my colonic the day after. See this is no ordinary review. I'm a performance artist who happens to be vegan- I want all the vegans and vegetarians to go and support this place. Since I ruined the review I'll just quit now, sorry about that. Really good food and great people.
