Dinner:

 

I decided to give the new Thai place a second chance. Last chance. It was decidedly sub-par. Never again.

 

It was supposed to be a Thai yellow curry - my mothrer made better out of convenience store curry powder. There was no coconut or lemongrass or chilli or anything you would expect in a Thai curry. The chicken was mostly potato and seriously undercooked carrot (⁈). It came with a side of overcooked cabbage. Very Thai, me don't thinks. The rice was OK.

 

Despite my being able to see from my home the building where the restaurant is located (it's maybe 5 minutes walk), the meal took 45 minutes to arrive and was, of course, cold. I had to nuke it.

There was also a bowl of Tom Yum soup, which I have left in the fridge for lunch tomorrow. We'll see.

First real failure in three weeks. Mustn't grumble. But I will!
