Asian Flavors

Issue 2 of a three part series. I know you read my Bo's Kitchen review because this is part two. A recap from the pervious episode, it's the restaurant that has to it's right Bo's Kitchen and to the left is HiFi Cafe. All confined to the same space as the old Taco Bell. Here at Asian Flavors, I only hot the Thai Loa Sausage. It's one sausage cut up into 6 pieces. Like how Chili's cuts a standard egg roll in half to make it look like two pieces. The illusion of more bang for the back. But this is worth the price because it was good. You get the heat in the end and the accompanying sauce add another layer of flavor. You can eat the sausage with or without the sauce. Overall three stars. I'm not gonna judge a restaurant on one appetizer with anything above a three. Stand by for my next review. Some Yelp channel, same corny jokes. Now excuse me, time to enjoy my duck noodle soup. Aww man it's still hot!!!! M

Came to pick up take out for dinner based on my fellow Yelper Eileen's enthusiastic urging and wonderful reviews. I wanted to try this place before they close on 12/24/2021. They are keeping their Ohana Market Place site, but this is such an easy to get to park location. Everything was really good, but beware because we ordered the cucumber salad with mild heat, but it was pretty darn spicy. I bit into a whole smashed Thai chili pepper that I thought was a smashed cherry tomato. I ate the side salads that no one wanted as well as a taste of some Panang curry and Pad Thai. I would imagine the meals would be even better if we ate it there while it was piping hot. Thanks Eileen for the recommendation!

So far so good, I had the green papaya salad and the Laos sausage. The green papaya salad was so spicy and so yummy. If you tell them you want it hot, they will make IG super hot and it's you will definitely enjoy that spice. I also had the Laos sausage that which was so delicious with the green papaya salad. I'm telling you, the two together is awesome! Something about Laos sausage makes it so different, I don't know what they put in it, but it's so yummy. I'll definitely be back for more.

This place might not look like much on the outside, but looks can be deceiving! I stumbled upon Asian Flavors when I was trying to find something quick to eat at the mall on my lunch break. I am a huge fan of Thai food and saw this place had Thai/Laotian fusion food. I decided to order their spicy long rice noodles with pork belly and now I literally get this every time I go here lol. It comes with clear long rice noodles in a spicy clear broth with generous pieces of pork belly and veggies. I ask to get it pretty spicy although it's already spicy. You know Thai/Laos do not mess around with their spices so this definitely has some heat to it. But I love it!! Price is pretty reasonable here too. They have a variety of other dishes that I have yet to try but they all look good. Highly recommend coming here when you're at Pearlridge!

So I don 't usually leave reviews, but I really loved the food. The restaurant is across the food court aka Phase 1, aka Uptown, aka Whatevertheydecidedtocallitthistime. We got a sampler that had Lao ribs, Lao sausage, pork chop and crispy pork belly. It was totally worth it! You can also get sticky rice on the side. The ribs were good; I really liked the seasoning. The pork belly reminded me of lechon and was served with onions and tomato on the side. The pork chop was good and had some sort of vegetable topping. The best thing was the Lao sausage. It was flavorful with a lot of herbs and had a good snap to it when you bit it. There was a bit of spice, but not overly spicy.... But I also like REALLY spicy things, so if you can 't handle spice I wouldn 't recommend the sausage. We are definitely coming back here again. I wanted to add that I also writing this review because I am thankful for the wonderful food. Last night 's dinner was a bust at a new place I tried and I was afraid to try a new place again only to be disappointed again. So glad that we found a new favorite place to eat at Pearlridge!
