There are Thai people in other places besides Thailand and San Francisco. You probably won't believe me but the place in Randolph is really, really good. And have you ever been to Chinatown in Boston? t.

I've been to Chinatown in Boston once a month for 11 yrs. My wife shops there. And thai and mexican restaurants in your area cater to Americans, not to thai and mexican people. Its fine food but wont make any top 10 outside of MA. Its a silly argument that Massacusetts mexican food is equivalent to TX and CA. Its plain crazy John. In my town alone there are over 15 different mexican restaunts, 15! The mission district in CA is world renowned and basically invented the incarnation of the burrito. I wont argue that TX and CA have good clam chowder, portugese food or even seafood in general. As far as Chinese or asian food in my area, Crazy, but there is a massive asian population in the DFW areas, There are asian stores the size of home depot, Im not exaggerating. Korean, Vietnamese, Chinese. Its Boston chinatown X 5. And its all awesome. My wife is an asian food fanatic, I cant tell you shes eaten every restaurant I can tell you she has no regrets living here and she is able to get more of her type of food here than in MA and that includes chinatown
look at the link and then the addl places on the right column, we searched for places like this in MA or even NE and nothing is close. There is an Hmart in burlington but it doenst comare. This place is a 15 minute ride and plenty of parking. There are tons of asian markets and restaurants here, tons!
