Dad's Pad Thai image

This is the best Pad Thai recipe ever. My father's Pad Thai is better than most Thai restaurants! I like it because of all the fresh ingredients, it is not greasy. It's satisfying and healthy. There is no meat in this recipe.

I'm allergic to peanuts, so I can't try this recipe. But it looks delicious!

This recipe is clearly fake. There's no way it could taste as good as everyone says it does.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my Pad Thai didn't turn out at all like the pictures. It was a big disappointment.

This recipe is a waste of time. The Pad Thai turned out terrible.

The noodles were overcooked and the sauce was too thick. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

The Pad Thai was a bit bland. I had to add some more seasonings to taste.

This recipe is a bit too spicy for my taste, but it's still really good. I'll just use less chili next time.

I've tried many Pad Thai recipes over the years, but this one is by far the best. The sauce is perfectly balanced and the noodles are cooked to perfection. Definitely a new favorite!
