Saturday, November 19, 2011, 6:00 p.m. Thai Spice, 2933 N. 108th Street, Omaha (shopping plaza on southeast corner of 108 th & Maple).  For our November dine out I wanted something different from the Thanksgiving dinner you’ll be eating the next week.  So, the dine out will be at Thai Spice, one of the best Thai restaurants in Omaha.  Thai Spice has the wonderful and traditional Pad Thai: glass noodles in a peanut/coconut milk sauce.  In addition, it has many different kinds of curry dishes, special fried rice, and dinners featuring beef, chicken, and various seafood.  Appetizers, from $5.95 to $3.95, include Chicken Satay (grilled chicken on skewers in peanut sauce) and two kinds of spring rolls.  Rice dishes, such as pineapple fried rice with chicken, shrimp, cashew nuts, and Thai basil are priced from $7.95 to $11.95.  Noodles, curry dishes, and salads are in the same price range.  The house specialties are too varied to describe but the most expensive item is $16.95, with most priced around $11.95.

The menu has 71 different items, so if you want to preview the menu, here’s the web address for their dinner and lunch menus.  http://www.thaispiceomaha.com/thaispicemenu.htm. There are lots of vegetarian options and (at least in my opinion) the best mild curry dishes in town.  Hope to see you there.  Please make reservations with Diana Vogt no later than 11am on November 19th.  Call or text Diana at 402-981-4012 or email fidgetydjv@gmail.com with the number of people you will be bringing.  Please use the phone/email listed here rather than my regular email to make sure I get your reservation.

Call or text Diana at 402-981-4012 or email fidgetydjv@gmail.com.  Please include the number of people you’ll be bringing.  The September Dine Out with 16 people was great fun.  Hope to see you there for September!
