Bangkok Bite Thai Cuisine<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Several years ago during an ice-breaker introduction at project team meeting, we were all asked to introduce ourselves and explain where we were from. Introducing myself as being from Massaman Curry, New Mexico drew absolutely no reaction, leading me to conclude two things: (1) my colleagues knew absolutely nothing about the Land of Enchantment and probably wondered if I needed a passport to get to Phoenix; and (2) despite one of our corporate values being “risk-taking,” none of them had ever dined at a Thai restaurant. These conclusions were reaffirmed during a break when one colleague commented about all the strangely named places in “Mexico,” citing Tacos (Taos?), Captain (Capitan?) and Lost Curses. <\/span><\/p>\n

When an introductory situation calls for giving my place of birth, my deadpan reply is generally “I was born in Saginaw, Michigan,” a reference to a 1964 song of that title performed by Lefty Frizzel. Because my delivery is so straight-faced (like a mendacious politician delivering a campaign promise), rarely are my impish replies called into question. It would be impossible, however, to maintain a straight-face should someone dig more deeply about Massaman Curry. It’s hard to remain impassive when you’re drooling. Yes, Massaman Curry does have that effect on me sometimes. For years it’s been my ut assolet choice during an inaugural visit to any Thai restaurant. But I digress…<\/span><\/p>\n

Bangkok Bite Dining Room<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

It could well be argued that there IS a Massaman Curry, New Mexico and that it’s clustered in the two-mile span between Constitution and Menaul on Wyoming. Within that stretch you’ll find what is probably the largest concentration of Thai restaurants in the state. At the southeastern-most flank is the elder statesperson (at only ten years) in Thai Tip<\/a>. About half a mile north is Tara Thai Cuisine<\/a>, also on Wyoming’s east side. Half a mile further north on Wyoming’s west side, the Hoffmantown Shopping Center is home to both Sizzling Thai<\/a> and Bangkok Bite. Drive less than a mile west on Menaul and you’ll find Krung Thai<\/a>. That’s five Thai restaurants in close proximity to each other. That’s a lot of Massaman Curry!<\/span><\/p>\n

Bangkok Bite opened its doors in March, 2015. True to its name, the restaurant\u2019s emphasis is on Thai cuisine as it\u2019s prepared in the capital city of Bangkok. Unfortunately there\u2019s no way to duplicate the experience of dining on the famous floating river market outside of Bangkok where local cuisine is prepared on floating kitchens right on boats. Experiential aspects aside, you can find wonderful cuisine on the \u201cdry\u201d sections of Bangkok, too. As with all cuisine of the region, Bangkok\u2019s food tends to emphasis the flavor profiles of sweet, salty, hot and greasy. Steamed rice is served with different types of nam prik (chili dipping sauces) and soups. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"
Deep-Fried Dumpling<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Ensconced within the fairly monochromatic (can you say stucco?) Hoffmantown Shopping Center, Bangkok Bite has one of the smallest storefronts on the complex, standing out only because of its signage\u2019s yellow Asian font style. The dining room is fairly Liliputian, too, with just about a half-dozen ten four-top tables in close proximity to one another. Even the menu is abbreviated, a far cry from some of the compendium-like menus at other Thai restaurants. Within that menu, you\u2019ll find a smattering of soups, salads, noodle dishes and of course, Massaman Curry.<\/span><\/p>\n

When you\u2019ve got a limited number of appetizers from which to choose, the decision should be easy, right? Not necessarily. Appetizers at Thai restaurants are not just a precursor to larger deliciousness, they\u2019re often a memorable highlight, sometimes even better than the entrees they precede. Dumplings<\/em> are always a safe and delicious bet. We expected Thai-style dumplings, the type made from fresh steamed rice noodles, but delivered to our table were the crescent-shaped dumplings more common in China. These are the dumplings to which many Americans refer as potstickers. Engorged with juicy pork and chives in a golden-brown skin with a crispy bottom and springy, chewy sides, the dumplings are served with a thin soy-based sauce which complements them well.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"
Pad Thai<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The introductory Thai dish for many diners, especially those of the unadventurous ilk, is Pad Thai<\/em>. It\u2019s the \u201csafe\u201d choice for the trepidacious of taste. In that respect it\u2019s a sort of the \u201cfried chicken\u201d of Thai cuisine. Pad Thai is generally good. It\u2019s filling, tasty and…passable, but I\u2019ve never had exceptional, life-altering, transformative Pad Thai. My Kim loves it, however, and she\u2019s fine with it being “just good enough” (which might explain why we\u2019ve been together for thirty years) and it suits her sweet-tooth. The Pad Thai at Bangkok Bite is just fine\u2026as good as you\u2019ll find at any good Thai restaurant in town. It’s just not especially memorable which makes it par for the course. If I\u2019d had my druthers, it would have been covered in prik nam pla, my favorite Thai chili and fish sauce condiment.<\/span><\/p>\n

A friend of mine from Santa Fe who shares my passion for Massaman Curry<\/em> considers its fragrant bouquet a sort of aromatherapy. Her ritual involves not only bending down to inhale the comforting aromatic spices, fresh herbs, rich coconut and full-flavored curry, but in using her hands to fan its steaming aromas upward to her awaiting nostrils. She loves the purity of Massaman Curry by itself and does not mix it with the steamed rice which customarily accompanies the curry. On the basis of this practice, she might not have liked the Massaman Curry at Bangkok Bite.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"
Massaman Curry<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

That\u2019s because the steamed rice isn\u2019t plated separately from the Massaman Curry. At Bangkok Bite, the twain does meet, whether you want it to or not. Although there is a clear demarcation between rice and curry, my friend would find it too easy for the two to mix and not in the proportion she would like. She makes a good point! The Massaman Curry is a harmonious interchange of sweet and savory flavors in a rich, yet mild and thoroughly delightful dish. Alas, perhaps because of its plating, there just isn\u2019t enough curry and there\u2019s too much rice. The ratio of curry to rice should be about 65\/35 or the rice absorbs the curry and renders the dish a bit on the dry side. By itself, the Massaman Curry is a pleasure to eat, but is best when plated separately from rice.<\/span><\/p>\n

It\u2019s become increasingly rare for Thai restaurants to cite \u201cseasonal availability\u201d as reasons not to have mangoes with sticky rice<\/em> on the menu year-round. Alas, the mangoes are generally not those grown in Southeast Asia, but those grown in Mexico and other tropical nations in the western hemisphere. Proximity has increased their availability greatly, much to the detriment of American waist lines. Paired with sticky rice in rich, sweet coconut milk, there may be no dessert which couples fresh, tangy fruit with a sweet-savory complement so deliciously. The mangoes and sticky rice at Bangkok Bite will remind you why \u201coff-season\u201d can be so painful. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"
Mangoes with Sticky Rice<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The aforementioned stretch of pavement on which several Thai restaurants can be found will probably never be known as \u201cLittle Thailand,\u201d but anyone jonesing for another Thai restaurant to add to their rotation should visit soon\u2026and often. Bangkok Bite is a welcome addition to the Duke City\u2019s Thai cuisine scene.<\/span><\/p>\n
