We love Chaba Thai over the years as its in our neighborhood and walkable. The people are super nice. But last night, July 20th, we ordered two Pad Thai with chicken, one MILD and one NO SPICE. And the one with NO SPICE was super spicy. Not okay. Chaba Thai should really comp our next order of Pad Thai. Couldn't eat the dish. And didn't want to have to walk back just to get a replacement last night. Very frustrating. So when you order, be very aware of what you get in...
