The tanginess of the lime juice and the sweet, rich creaminess of the coconut milk are in perfect proportions to make for an aromatic and delectable soup.

I don&#8217;t recall Tip&#8217;s explanation for what ailment Massaman (spelled mas su maan on the menu) curry can alleviate, but it certainly cured my hunger. <em>Massaman curry<\/em> is a Thai Muslim curry with flavors reminiscent of some sweeter Indian curries. It requires gentle, slow cooking and melds such ingredients as red curry, coconut milk, potatoes, onions and roasted peanuts. The aroma of a truly great Massaman curry is intoxicating while the flavors captivate your taste buds with contrasts of sweet and savory notes. At Thai Tip, the Massaman is a great one. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small; font-family: Verdana;\">You can specify the degree of &#8220;heat&#8221; you want on many of your entrees. The intrepid diner might opt for &#8220;New Mexico hot&#8221; while those with asbestos-lined taste buds might opt for &#8220;Thai hot&#8221; which didn&#8217;t faze me during our inaugural visit (though during my second visit, the &#8220;New Mexico&#8221; hot brought healing tears of joy (at least that&#8217;s all I&#8217;ll admit to) to my eyes). Further confirmation of Tip&#8217;s &#8220;heart healthy&#8221; attitude is shown in the way she shapes the rice which accompanies your entrees&#8211;like a Valentine&#8217;s Day heart. <\/span><\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 488px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 488px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 488\/311;border: 4px solid black; margin-top: 3px; margin-bottom: 3px;\" data-src=\"https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2005\/04\/ThaiTip03.jpg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"488\" height=\"311\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2005\/04\/ThaiTip03.jpg?lossy=2&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 488w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2005\/04\/ThaiTip03-300x191.jpg?lossy=2&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 300w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2005\/04\/ThaiTip03.jpg?size=128x82&amp;lossy=2&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 128w, https:\/\/b4385483.smushcdn.com\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2005\/04\/ThaiTip03.jpg?size=384x245&amp;lossy=2&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 384w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 488px) 100vw, 488px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Pineapple Curry<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small; font-family: Verdana;\">You might notice that there was a span of more than ten years in between my first and second visits to Thai Tip. In no way should that be construed as my not having liked this extremely popular Thai restaurant. While we thoroughly enjoyed our inaugural experience, it&#8217;s not open for lunch on Saturdays when errands occasionally bring us to this part of town. During the interim between visits, friends and colleagues certainly let me know a second visit was long overdue. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small; font-family: Verdana;\"><strong>30 April 2005<\/strong>: A nice introduction to Tip&#8217;s style is the <em>assorted Thai appetizers<\/em> menu item which includes two egg rolls, two chicken satay skewers, two fried dumpling pot stickers stuffed with chicken and vegetables, and two deep-fried wontons stuffed with ground pork and mixed with a touch of black pepper and potato. This appetizer menagerie is served with a mild peanut sauce and Tip&#8217;s own egg roll sauce which is a cloying, syrupy sauce with peanuts. My preference would have been for a more traditional cucumber sauce or for more chili (at least New Mexico hot) to have been added to either of the sauces. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small; font-family: Verdana;\"><strong>1 September 2015<\/strong>: For a more singularly focused appetizer, you can&#8217;t beat Thai Tip&#8217;s <em>spring rolls<\/em>, two translucent rice wraps engorged with shredded lettuce, noodles, grated carrots, julienne cucumbers and shrimp. They&#8217;re roughly the size of a baby&#8217;s arm, so large that a woman in a nearby table couldn&#8217;t eat her entree after having filled up on the spring rolls. Served with a sweet-piquant (mostly sweet) sauce, these spring rolls aren&#8217;t just large in terms of size, they&#8217;re imbued with strong notes of freshness and flavor. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small; font-family: Verdana;\"><strong>1 September 2015<\/strong>: During a recent deliberation on the qualities of Pad Thai (a dish I find mundane, but which he loves), my friend Ryan &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/breakthechainnm\/videos\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Break the Chain<\/a>&#8221; Scott admitted he&#8217;s only experienced transcendent Pad Thai once and it was at Thai Tip. Much as I love and respect my friend, not even his sage recommendation was enough to get me to order Pad Thai&#8230;especially when there&#8217;s <em>pineapple curry <\/em> (red curry, shrimp, bell peppers coconut milk and pineapple) on the menu. If you&#8217;re worried about the combination of coconut milk and pineapple rendering this dish cloying, you need not be, especially if you order the dish New Mexico hot. And it&#8217;s not that the chili obfuscates the inherent sweetness of other ingredients or that it numbs you (remember, in the Land of Enchantment, pain is a flavor), the heat serves as a balancing agent between sweet and savory ingredients. This is an excellent curry!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small; font-family: Verdana;\">Even fire-eaters will need something to cool their blistered tongues after consuming an inferno-hot entree at Thai Tip. <em>Thai iced coffee <\/em>(sweetened imported coffee over crushed ice mixed with half and half) does the trick nicely. Not only that, it&#8217;s a delicious, hearty coffee for those of us who like our coffee as strong as our chile. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small; font-family: Verdana;\">Thai Tip is far too good a restaurant for ten years to elapse between visits. With an improved employment proximity to this terrific Thai restaurant, look for me to make up for lost time. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small; font-family: Verdana;\"><strong>Thai Tip<\/strong><br \/>\n1512 Wyoming, N.E.<br \/>\n<strong>Albuquerque, New Mexico<\/strong><br \/>\n(505) 323-7447<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small; font-family: Verdana;\"><strong>LATEST VISIT<\/strong>: 1 September 2015<br \/>\n<strong>1st VISIT<\/strong>: 30 April 2005<br \/>\n<strong># OF VISITS<\/strong>: 2<br \/>\n<strong>RATING<\/strong>: 22<br \/>\n<strong>COST<\/strong>: $$<br \/>\n<strong>BEST BET<\/strong>: Thom Kha Soup; Massaman Curry, Pineapple Curry, Spring Rolls, Thai Iced Coffee<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Although short in stature, gregarious Tippewan &#8220;Tip&#8221; Sherrod, for whom Thai Tip is named, is as dynamic and passionate a restaurateur as you&#8217;ll meet in Albuquerque.
