Thai Singha House - 20th between Sansom and Walnut St

Thai Singha House To Go
My wallet would like to give thanks to places like Thai Singha House who along with NY Gyro Cart, Mama's Vegetarian and a few others make up a short list of cheap but good eats in the area. When you enter you're greeted by a steam table with a collection of pre made foods behind a glass shield and not much else.  This space is tiny and there's really only room for a small kitchen, the counter, a beverage fridge and a few cramped window seats if you choose to eat in.  The standard lunch special is $6 for any 2 choices from the counter.

1) Chicken Pad Thai - $6
My usual 2 choices are Chicken and Pad Thai and for $6 you get a lot of it.  The food is put together in front of you and you're out the door in a matter of minutes.  Now the convenience of having thai food available for quick take out does have its downsides.  When you have this kind of food pre-made and sitting out in you invariably run into soggy noodles and dry chicken and Thai Singha House is no exception to these problems.  But more often than not you get a full container of good thai food at a price you can't beat.

Overall LTE score [6.5/10] Quick, convenient, cheap and good.  This equates to a good LTE option.
