No Thai!

If you’re looking for somewhere reasonably priced to eat, with good food, look no further than South U or Kerrytown’s No Thai!  This is one of my all-time favorite places to eat on campus…my friends and I always joke about how we could write a five-page essay about this place.  No Thai is one of the most enjoyable places to eat on campus.  And pre-recession, you could get 2 nights worth of dinner for $8.  Now it’s more of a $10 endeavor, but it’s well worth it.  There are a number of different things on the menu, including different kinds of noodles, many different combinations of vegetable stir fry, fried rice, sweet and spicy chicken, and a few appetizers/side dishes.  But with the amount of food they give you, you won’t be needing anything else.  You also get to choose a protein (chicken, beef, shrimp, tofu), and a spice level: no spice, weak, medium, yoga flame, and dim mak- the death touch.  I am a spicy food lover and I have yet to venture past medium, although I plan to try yoga flame in the fall.  The food comes out fast, and it’s always delicious.  I used to go once a week with my friends, until the freshman fifteen and the sophomore hundred and fifteen kicked in.  There are two problems with no thai: 1.  They don’t deliver.  2.  At the South U location, unless you’re an expert like I am, it is near impossible to get a table in the tiny restaurant at a reasonable dinner hour.  But aside from that, this might be my favorite place to eat on campus.  Unfortunately it is enough calories to cover a week’s worth of food, so word of advice: go during orientation or welcome week, while you’re still thin.
