text: When I am craving Thai nothing else will satisfy My friend and I visited Thai Basil as it was the closest Thai destination to her home and I ordered my favorite dish of panang curry with shrimpnnAnd I will lay it on the line it was pretty vile I am shocked at the numerous fivestar reviews I read of this particular location because really this dish tasted nothing like the millions of other panang curries that I have tasted in my life It was just so heavy on the peanut flavor and utterly lacking in any other and the shrimp were rubbery and almost inedible I hardly ate any so my kind friend wrapped it up and said excitedly You have an awesome lunch ready for work tomorrow And I did not have the heart to tell her that there was no way I would be able to warm it upnnIts too bad they were very friendly it was reasonably priced and it was a cute little place My dining partner seemed to enjoy her dish maybe it was just a bad night for the curry
