Definitely one of the lengthiest names for a food cart downtown, Thai Tea Clean Food Good Taste is located on SW 2nd Ave between Oak and Stark. This cart has been in this location a while now, and today I had a craving for their signature dish, the Crispy Basil Tilapia.
There are plenty of Thai carts in Portland, and you can expect your standard stir fry and curry dishes at just about any of them. It helps to have something to stand out, and this dish certainly qualifies.
The Tilapia is lightly breaded and pan fried while you wait, then served in a Thai sauce with onions, crispy basil leaves, green and red bell peppers, mushroom, and some rice on the side. Simply delicious, and has that extra "hey, this is good for me" feel to it. Not the first time I've had this dish, and each time it was excellent, the fish was cooked 'just right' and I ate every bite.
As for the rest of the menu, hey offer all your standard Thai favorites, along with potstickers, coconut shrimp, Thai iced tea, etc. Chicken, beef, shrimp and tofu can be selected with any dish.
It's good food, clean food, and tastes good - so the lengthy name is appropriate.
Mmmm..
