Sir fried basil with pork.

Chicken is gai.

Hope you also had kai dow with it. Pat kaprow isn't the same without one on top.

BTW: dow= fried egg

"pat" or "pad" = stir fried

"kapow", "krapow" = basil

"gai" = chicken

For example....."Pat Kapow Gai" = stir fried chicken w/basil

Whoops, KAI dow is fried egg.

not to be picky... but isn't it "kaprao" not "krapow" as you said which is a suitcase!!! I've had a few odd looks using Krapow

You are right!

"krapow" sounds a bit Russian for me

Bai Gaprao(to be a bit picky, sorry).

More specifically it is sunny side up (kai dow), just the way I like them. dow > star .

How come you spent three weeks eating it but don't know what it is... ?

[glenbat]

just fell in love with it i guess... I knew it was rice, some form of meat and green beans and leaves, but was unsure of the exact recipe. Started going quite hot with it too, couple of bottles of nom (whoops shold be nam ) and went down easily

The faces of the waitresses when u ask for 2 nom was a picture!
