A favourite dish recommendation by Anna from Morsels & Musings inspires me to try for lunch at Chat Thai after just having lunch there the day before. This time it's for the Boat Noodle Soup which comes with crackling. It's full of flavour and I love the taste to the last spoonful. I'm not sure what's in it but each mouthful is satisfying taste sensation. Be sure to eat your crackling quickly before it gets too soggy from the soup. A colleague has the Green Papaya Salad which has lovely fresh ingredients, served with sticky rice and provides noticeable garlic and chilli on the taste buds.

I've only realised today after visiting for years that this place is called Chat Thai and is one of four places they have around Sydney. Their food court eatery is always popular during lunch time and I've sometimes had to wait about 15 minutes for my dish to be cooked but today my usual order of chicken fried rice is ready in about 5 minutes to my surprise. I always prefer to drizzle a bit of the chilli/fish sauce/soy sauce mixture on it and combined with a good squeeze of the lemon wedge makes for a very tasty meal. I believe they also make quite a garlic infused green papaya salad if your clear of meetings.
