I chose squid as my protein for this glass noodle dish as the Thai waitress said it was usual to eat this in Thailand with seafood. I ordered it with a spice level they called Thai, and ooh la la! It turned out to be one of the spiciest dishes I've eaten. In spite of that, it was delicious. There were large tender squid rings that smelled and tasted like ocean breeze, bok choy and ong choy (both still crunchy), the noodles were very thin and soft, and there were small pieces of scrambled egg throughout. The flavors were spicy (of course!), savory, and a little sweet and sour. Ong choy, by the way, is a member of the sweet potato family, and its leaves and shoots are a popular vegetable in the tropics.

Looks good! And tomorrow you can tell us whether or not it hurts at the other end of the alimentary canal too.
