As I haven't had Pad Thai for a couple of years, not sure why as I quite like it, I went off to one of our local Pad Thai restaurants for lunch.
This one is on Soi Thepprasit, if your coming from Sukhimvit road it is near the end of the road on the left hand side, ie maybe 100 meters from the Jomtien junction, it is next door to a few other ramshackle shophouses that have the front to call themselves Thai restaurants, pretty sure you are supposed to sit in them to eat your Pad Thai as the Pad Thai place only has 2 tables and maybe 4 chairs, so welcome to Hi So Pad Thai, yep, thats what it is called.
The Pad Thai here is pretty good, think they all cost 40baht so really not worth making yourself at home, unless of course your not in Thailand.
Of course if you want to make your own here is the recipe TeakDoor.com - The Thailand Forum Pad Thai
