food at the end of the great highway

as you may have read, i'm sick. and when i'm sick, i want comfort food.

this evening Cat and i were debating what to eat for dinner. she wanted something fried - preferably cheese fries, i wanted comforting noodle (translate to: Thai food)... now we live in San Francisco with most countries represented via restaurants - but where could we find Thai/American cuisine?? Cat didn't really want Thai as she had Cambodian for lunch - so where would we find this great compromise?

at the end of the great highway is where...

tomorrow is the Nike's women's marathon around and through golden gate park - so the parking in the city is a nightmare as it is tourist central! and it is even worse around the park as they have blocked the parking until 4pm tomorrow. no taking a chance getting towed. so we drive around the block a few times as Cat is willing to make the great sacrifice and do Thai food to meet the sick one's noodle need. :) but after 10-12 minutes of hunting it was becoming painfully clear - there would be no parking for us - so we decide to have a bit of an adventure and try the "Great Highway Cafe" - Thai and American cuisine.

and amazingly enough we found both... i ordered noodle and soup - Cat ordered grilled ham and cheese (minus the ham) with fries!

and it was pretty darn good!
probably among the better thai food i've had in a while.

who knew it existed - this perfect mix of Thai and American cuisine... in one little restaurant at the end of the great highway...
