I will do that. We have some good Thai restaurants around too. A few good Loatian restaurants too. So is Sum Taam very hot? I like hot Thai food, but sometimes it takes me a while to eat the real hot stuff...and a lot of water :-)

Sometimes I think people concentrate on how hot Thai food is too much...I like to concentrate on how good it tastes!
