On a rainy Wednesday afternoon, I kissed my student diet goodbye [temporarily], thanks to Lee's Thai Spring Roll. Located just west of Eighth St. on Lake Shore Blvd W. Lee's specializes in authentic Thai and Malaysian cuisine with an affordable menu, where most entrees go for around $12. If you pay cash on pick-up orders, you receive a 10 per cent discount, which works wonders for those of us on student budgets (or if you're an extreme couponer)
I kept it simple and went for the regular Pad Thai ($10.75), which came loaded with tofu, sprouts, lemon, chicken, shrimp and probably the kitchen sink if it could fit in the small takeout container. You definitely get your money's worth, no skimpy portions. But the real reason I had to run to my laptop and write this is because the Pad Thai was delicious. Seriously. Also, apologies for the somewhat ambiguous photo, but I was just too hungry to get my Instagram on.

I'm tempted to say "it was like a warm hug on a cold day". But before I get anymore corny, just hop on the 510 Queen streetcar (westbound) and get some for yourself, or I may just eat it all.
Peace and grub y'all!
