Chili Cha Cha
A food review of my favorite Thai place, recorded between bites.
Listen instead
Today, I had Chili Cha Cha, and that's very close to my nickname that my mom calls me. Also very close to my Roblox username, Chachiloochie. It's a Thai food place, and yes, I am eating it right now, if you can hear. Not to gross you out at all.
But I, personally, love food. And while I also want to be an actor when I grow up, I also want to be a food critic. And my mom — she's here right now — would say that I am very good at it, because I would consider myself having good food critique, or just critique in general. I might not be using that correctly, but… try criticism. Food criticism.
This place, however — the pad thai, their fried rice with the chicken, and the curry with all the vegetables. Those three are very, very good.
Why? What's good about them? Everything. Everything is good about them.
First things first: the pad thai. And the rice — both have chicken. I love chicken. I was a kid at my school, like, will do anything for chicken. But me, I will do anything for pulled pork. Just saying. Oh, also, like, beef jerky is pretty good — but that's off topic.
The vegetable curry, however, like the, its almost like a soup and the soup, like in. quotes, the "soup" part of it? That part that taste? Whoa. So good. And it has, like, carrots and green beans. Not so good about the green beans part — I don't really like green beans. But there's eggplant, and there's broccoli. I don't usually actually like broccoli, but in that dish — which a lot of Vietnamese places have — for, wait.(clears throat loudly) Sorry, it's Thai food. I was just thinking of pho. That's why I said Vietnamese. No, this isnt the type of place I'm talking about. A lot of Thai food places have it. It's really good.
And if you don't mind — there's another soup. Mm. It has coconut in it. I don't like coconut. But it also does have chicken, and it kind of tastes like lemon, I gotta say.
But, uh, that's all from me. And you know what I'm gonna do right now? I need some chocolate, so…
Thats going in my thesis. I was just chewing. So… if you could hear it.
