I had this as part of the lunch combo plate, rather than a full $7.50 portion.

I also asked them to substitute rice noodles for the standard issue jasmine rice--which I generally recommend.

My new "thing" when I go to Thai restaurants now is to get red curry with rice noodles--I just love it soooo much. This was far from the best I've had, but it wasn't terrible. There is some flavor that apparently exists in nature because I've encountered it numerous times, which to my brain signals reads as the flavor of a rubber tire. I don't know what it is or if it's just me, but this dish bore elements of that flavor.

Also it featured two of the vegetables I find to be the most odious--actually, I believe the only two vegetables I find to be odious--the eggplant and the green pepper. So overall I wasn't wholly satisfied with this dish as it was prepared, so I would probably be drawn to try something else if I find myself at Chilli Cha Cha again. However, I have a feeling that these sentiments are simply reservations that I personally hold, so you might find it delicious.

What did you think?
