pad thai


in stockholm???

trust sofo to have the most authentic pad thai i've had outside thailand! it's crazy because i haven't had pad thai in ages and it was as if A was a mind reader or something. hot pad thai on a snowy evening really hits the spot. mhmmm. i'm still thinking about it :)

had a lovely quiet evening with the german power couple, S and A, and i'm really going to miss them. they're both over-achievers in their own right, extremely intimidating on paper but oh-so-affable in person. A is one of the warmest, most genuine friends i've made on erasmus and i am in constant awe of her domestic divinity. S, ever efficient and resourceful, found this gem of a thai place, whose name escapes me, i'm sorry. but ohmyword who'd have thought i'd have the most amazing pad thai in this land of bland and substandard local cuisine? ok, take that back. paul&norbert served pretty darn fantastic swedish cuisine with an international interpretation but swedish food in general leaves much to be desires. still haven't had a kolbullar (swedish meatball) since helsinking.

dinner was memorable. great food, better company and i'm touched that in spite of the all-nighters they both pulled rushing a ruleoflaw paper for today, they still made time to meet me. now that's true friendship - a rare commodity indeed in the facetious world of erasmus. heh.
