That's interesting. I live in Hawaii, and we have a lot of different Thai restaurants. They are almost all family-owned businesses staffed by people who either first- or second-generation Thai immigrants. Those ones are always the best, and they all serve the same types of dishes but they also all have their unique spin on things. I haven't been to a lot of Thai restaurants on the mainland, but the few I've been to on the East Coast have all been similarly terrible. I've always wondered just where these places are getting their awful recipes from.

My $0.02 for a good Thai restaurant on the East Coast, crazy as it may seem, is to check and see if they have a picture of the late Thai monarch Rama IX displayed prominently near the coat-check/hostess station/bar. I don't know what it is, but the Thai places who have his picture up are invariably better quality than the ones that don't. But yeah, Thai food on the West Coast was reliably better.
