Combination Red Curry & Coconut Noodles
At the moment I’m completely infatuated with everything Asian– a vast departure from my typical obsession with everything Mexican. Instead of churning out enchiladas, dreaming about puffy tacos, and inhaling cheese dip like it’s my job, I’m downing pho like I’ve never had it before, lusting after PF Chang’s crispy honey chicken and slurping up these red curry and coconut noodles like I’ve been deprived of food for days.
