Jitlada Lovers--What are your favorite dishes?

Yeah, I left out the part where they seemed very attentive to certain tables and… not to others. But perhaps those people were regulars (I certainly didn’t recognize them myself). Of course you should be attentive to regulars… But not at the expensive of virtually ignoring other customers.

I guess TonyC ain’t Drew Barrymore (who was apparently seen there once)…

Sounds like something I’d love, but I couldn’t find that on the menu.

That #177 is my favorite to order. Super gelatinous pig knuckles and hock in broth. Crazy spicy.

dang… rip… who’s going to fill those shoes?

This is really shocking and sad. :cry:

:cry: Sad to hear.

I was so sad to see this today. We had a nice chat with him at our first ever meal there–a good while ago now. He was a little hidden behind Jazz’s personality but it worked for them. I remember Jazz telling us that despite Tui cooking up some of the hottest food in the US he didn’t actually enjoy very hot food himself.

Has anyone visited since the passing of Chef Tui?

ask me again in a month…

Posting here because I anticipate a visit in the coming weeks, this time for the curry. Last time I got the Crying Tiger because I saw Curtis Stone recommend this on Food Network show lol get outta here with that Curtis! I wish Jitlada would just serve up curry and rice.

Also the thread that started it all:

Which curry? There are so many.

I want to try the Fishball with Egg in Green Curry.

From what I learned in Thailand they have places called Khom Gaeng, rice and curry places with lots of different curries, generally affordable. If I was to visit Southern Thailand I will definitely hit up a khom gaeng. I just wish Jitlada would unabashedly be just curry and rice, maybe a few of those speciality salads
