All snow talk aside, tonight's dinner was at Tuk Tuk Thai Grill. I thought their logo was kind of cute, a choo choo train and therefore "tuk tuk choo choo" Thai Grill. Get it? It is a very small and cozy restaurant with some of the nicest servers I have ever met. The cashier (who was also a server) would say, "Good afternoon miss, what can I get for you today?" Then I ask all kinds of questions about the food, what's good, what does he recommend, and I continue until I am tired of talking. With complete patience (unlike me) and politeness, he answered all my questions and waited until I finally made up my mind.
I ordered the pineapple fried rice because I was craving for pineapples, and curry, and pad thai.....almost everything on the Specials menu. The fried rice also had carrots, peas, chicken, eggs, and cashews. The fried rice smelled so yummy. One of the best things about this dish was the shrimp. I am not a big fan of shrimp and the only shrimp dish I absolutely love is the Chinese Walnut Shrimp. But the shrimp in the fried rice was unbelievably delicious. It was fresh and coated with some kind of curry flavor that didn't overpower the overall taste of the dish. The rice was also fried to perfection, with a little burnt wok taste (but the rice was far from being burnt). I could eat this forever!
Okay, I gotta go catch my flight. Yeah, it didn't get cancalled yet and hopefully I get to go home today. Catch ya later :)

You should have ordered every dish on the menu. Just take the left-over back home.
