    Not being a tofu lover - this was suprisingly good. I had to make some substitutions (lime brown & sugar for tamarind, brown sugar and ginger for the palm suger, green thai chili's for the dried red chili's, regular salad shrimp for the dried shrimp and i made my own "salted cabbage". Lots of substitutions in fact, but it tasted great.

    I'm a big pad thai fan and eat it often, so I was let down by $30 worth of groceries and not a good result. I love your recipes alton, but this was quite a let down.

    The tofu marinade was a disaster. The five spice powder completely hijacked the dish. I did not make my own five spice powder but bought the one and only kind they offered at the big Asian Food emporium I went to. It was disgusting. The straight soy sauce on the tofu was so salty that it was nearly inedible. In the time it marinated it had practically soaked right through. I was very disappointed with the flavor of the dish. I'm an ex-New Yorker who ordered out pad thai three nights per week for thirteen years, so I know exactly what good pad thai is supposed to taste like. Take my advice and follow his instructions for everything but the tofu marinade and tamarind sauce mixture. Experiment and come up with your own sauce. Make something that tastes right even before you cook it and it's sure to be great. Sorry Alton, but it's going to be MY pad, not yours. :-

    Lovely variation of Pad Thai (the name means Thia style Noodles - a dish inventened by chinese imagrants to Thailand... There are as many variations of Pad Thai as there are cooks making it and this is a very legitamate variation.

    Not too bad, overall, but not like any pad thai experience I've had before. I think the recipe uses too much vinegar, and I'd suggest cutting it in half. A lot of work when perfectly good sauces can be bought at the same asian markets that sell the ingredients.

    ALTON IS PERSISTENT. CAN I SEE SOME KIND OF VALUABLE REASON WHY YOU ARE THE THOUGHT, BECAUSE THE THOUGHT IS REAL AND THE PHYSICAL IS AN ILLUSION. A.B. MY GIRLFRIEND DISLIKES MY TIME WATCHING YOUR SHOW, BUT IT TAKES A THIRTY THREE YEAR OLD TO ACTUALLY SET HERE AND TRY TO REMEMBER THE KEYES THAT I LEARNED TWENTY YEARS AGO. BETWEEN u AND I , WISH I HAD A MARKET LIKE YOURS THAT WHENEVER I NEEDED AGENT W SHE WAS THERE. HOWEVER, LOVE THE SHOW GETS ME IN TROUBLE ALL THE TIME. CDMOORING 4366 PORT ARTHUR RD.
