It was my first day in the office with all of my colleagues working there as well. I received warm hugs from several colleagues who were excited to see me in person. For lunch, HR arranged for me to eat with two colleagues, and we decided to go for Thai because I needed a comforting bowl of rice.
We walked to the nearby Patong restaurant. I ordered my usual green curry with rice and boy, was it amazing! I realized how watered-down the Thai food we have in Vancouver truly is. Sheesh!
Green Chicken Curry with rice from Pa Tong Thai Restaurant |
This green curry had the perfect balance of heat and was incredibly creamy due to the rich coconut milk. The flavours were vibrant and authentic, a far cry from what I was used to back home. It was a delightful and satisfying meal that made my first day even more memorable.
