We had dinner at a very simple, out of the way Thai restaurant. The selection around the theater would leave anyone wanting; there were homeless men and women passing by, and we witnessed a drug transaction outside the restaurant window. The food was reasonably priced and quite fresh; portions were gargatuan.
Chuck tried Iced Thai Tea, and to both of our surprises, it was delicious. Something on the order of Chai, but less biting. He had the chicken pad thai and I had sauteed prawns with vegetables and rice in peanut sauce. For $15, we could have fed 2 more people, and we did.
We walked out with 2 bags; one went to a sleeping woman on a nearby sidewalk who had a shopping cart with her belongings and we placed one of our doggie bags in her cart. The second bag went to a woman who was asking for donations in front of the theater. She even cared to ask what type of food it was. Who said beggars can't be choosy?
