Neisha Thai
Tuesday night I was offering BBQ pork sandwiches, but DH wanted to go to Neisha Thai in Tyson's Corner. So we did. Construction at the mall has really left them with a mess in front of the restaurant - outdoor tables gone, and no parking (free valet parking available), but this food is still worth a little hassle to get. For an appetizer, we had Goong Fu - deep-fried green beans, tiny shrimp (with panko bread crumbs?) & cashews with a lime juice dressing. For the main course we shared Passion Beef, and Grilled Salmon in Banana Leaf. Passion Beef is Thai fajitas - strips of beef marinated, then cooked over high heat and served on a sizzling platter. Grilled Salmon in Banana Leaf is the only Asian-style preparation of salmon I have ever had that actually complements the salmon. They use lemon grass and kaffir lime leaf, and I'm not sure what else - all wrapped in banana leaf and grilled, served with grilled vegetables, and a lime juice-fish sauce dipping sauce.
