Thai Basil Omelet MetroBites visit photo

Thai Basil Omelet

The outside is lightly crisp while the center stays soft, layering egg aroma with Thai basil.

Pad Kra Pao Pork MetroBites visit photo

Pad Kra Pao Pork

Minced pork carries a clear Thai basil aroma, with bold seasoning that is not simply salty. At mild heat, the spice works especially well with white rice. A good choice if you want an herb-forward meat dish to share with other stir-fries.

Shrimp-Paste Green Beans MetroBites visit photo

Shrimp-Paste Green Beans

Shrimp paste is stir-fried into green beans for a pronounced savory aroma while the vegetables keep their natural sweetness and crunch. This is a rice-friendly way to add vegetables to a meat-heavy table without choosing something bland.

METROBITES LOCAL TIP
Ask which dishes can be adjusted for heat

Only some dishes can have their heat adjusted. If you are sensitive to spice, ask which items can be made mild or not spicy before deciding on the table's combination; do not assume every dish can be changed.
