My wife and I had about three hours to dawdle around before the show at Key Arena and we were both a bit hungry so we decided to walk and see what looked good. I'm a big fan of Thai food, while she usually sticks with Phad Thai. We saw Phuket's sign and decided to try it. Good choice! The descriptions of some of the dishes is the same except for the name of the meat (chicken, beef or pork). I ordered the Waterfall Beef - an all time favorite of mine - and mentioned that one of the other dishes sounded like it could be called "Waterfall Pork". The waitress didn't even bat an eye: "You can have Waterfall Pork if you'd like." I thought I'd died and gone to heaven! My wife tried the "Rama" - chicken in peanut sauce over just-barely-grilled spinach. She, too, was very happy.
It could have been spicier, but we'll just have to remember that next time -- and there will definitely be a next time!
Pros: Flexibility on orders (substitution of pork for "Waterfall Beef"
Cons: Could have been closer to the 3-star spiciness. Lacked a bit of zest.
