Baramee Thai Bistro ~ Kansas City, Missouri

First visit: Oct 2023

Those who follow this blog must be asking "But where's the Thai restaurant? Mrs. RJG insists on it right?". Of course that is what is known as a "hypothetical". In any case, yes indeed, Thai food was on the agenda. 

I'm just going to get right to it - Best Thai food I've had in ages! For my tastes it was perfection. I had the Pad Ka Prau (it's my test dish for sure): Ground chicken, Thai hot, Asian oil, garlic fried egg, and lots of basil. Not too dry, not too wet, not full of onions and peppers, but just the right amount. Every single bite was a delight. I didn't have to make hardly any alterations - that's how it comes off the menu (except the ground chicken). Oddly, Mrs. RJG's dish wasn't as good. She tried the Drunken Noodle with "too much chicken" (no such thing in my world), not enough noodle, and too "eggy" (what?). We each enjoyed a nice glass of chardonnay.

Beelining here for our next trip to KC, no matter where we stay in the city. Mrs. RJG knows she'll find the right dish. Great open air atmosphere as well. The place was jam packed, so it's obviously popular with locals as well.
