Poonim Phat Phong Kari

2.5

at Yum Thai

-Sinsa, Gangnam, Seoul, Republic of Korea-

with the Family, Mom + Dad

While Yum Thai is my favorite Thai restaurant, and poonim phat phong kari is my favorite Thai dish, this was my first time having the dish at the restaurant.

I was happy with the amount of crab, maybe 4 whole ones, as well as the unnecessary-though-welcome squid rings mixed in between.  But the egg curry was a bit spicy, too much for even DJ to handle, and a tad bitter, perhaps from too much ginger.  The price was okay at 25,000 won.
