I like how she washes her hands in the canal before grabbing food for the wok.

Reminds me there's a thai place around the corner I gotta try out and see if their pad thai is any good. This other place like a block from me that makes it. Unfortunately it's as bland as hell there and the noodles are just crap, half the time I could swear it's spaghetti. A proper pad thai should smell sort of like really stinky feet and use gummy noodles.

Just watched with my wife (who is Thai). She has some advice for anyone wanting to prepare outside Thailand:

1) The ideal noodles are small, flat, rice noodles. If you have a Thai shop in your area you can impress them and probably get a discount by ordering in Thai -- ask for "sen lek". Sen means 'line' and sounds like the beginning of "CENtury" and lek means 'small' and sounds like the beginning of "LECture". Should be noted that these noodles tend to have a shorter shelf life than we are used to with pasta noodles like spaghetti.
2) Add the egg after the noodles are basically finished, and the result will be more gooey / gummy.
3) If tamarind juice is not readily available, substitute vinegar and/or lemon juice.
4) Many Thai people like to add small bits of pork rinds on top or mixed in after it is finished -- give it a try.

I've never seen a cooked dish served with a spoon full of sugar added after as a topping. It just looks wrong lol.
