davis_squarehas anyone had the green papaya salad at sweet chili? i'm curious to try it. i've never had it so i didn't want to order it from a place that might be Doing It Wrong.
i ordered take out from them last night (i needed so satiate a pad thai craving - not the best i've had but did the trick!) and a random memory popped into my head about the green papaya salad. i actually found the post, but it turns out that commenter was talking about a restaurant, not the dish.
also, they gave me a small (sauce-sized) container of a creamy substance with tapioca in it, a very pale greenish hue, with some yellow bits. it was sweet, and enjoyable, until the yellow bits which i thought might be mango turned out to be corn. wondering if this is some dessert/palate cleanser type thing and/or if it got in my bag by accident.
the yelp reviews didn't come up with anything, and i've long hated the fact that foodler does not give you any option to expand upon why you liked or didn't like a dish which makes their rating system pretty much useless.
somewhat related: mods, what is the difference between the 'dining' an 'restaurant' tags?
[by the way, the octopus appetizer special for sit down? don't be expecting calamari or sushi.]
