Sai Jai Thai

Pin It Now!

Pad thai.  Not particularly tasty, but its one of my main staples I order when trying out a new Thai place.  The search continues for a good pad thai in SF...
Pad Kee Mao with pork.  A stir fried flat rice noodles with cabbage, broccoli, carrots, onions, basil, and bell peppers served in a spicy sauce.  I ordered this "Thai Spicy" and this came out pretty mild.  Maybe a 5/10 spiciness. Extremely oily and bland.

Kao pad kor moo yang.  Probably Sai Jai's best known dish - pork shoulder with spicy sauce over fried rice.  The fried rice was pretty good, but the pork shoulder was even better.  Each piece was marbled with fat so you get a nice taste and texture in each bite.  The spicy sauce isn't spicy at all - more tangy than spicy.  You can get the pork shoulder over a salad or just order it as a meat ala carte dish, which I think I will get next time I eat here.
