Drew Barrymore Devoured the "Best Lunch Ever" in Thailand, and Instagrammed Its Glory
Globe-trotting Drew Barrymore noted, "I had to lie down after."
Like Julie Montagu before her, Drew Barrymore has nothing but raves when it comes to Thai food. But, the actress isn't exactly digging into takeout Pad Thai from Seamless. (Though that, too, serves its purpose — i.e., we're ordering it tonight.) Barrymore is actually on a trip to Thailand, sharing FOMO-inducing snaps from the lavish spreads she encounters along the way.
On March 14, the Santa Clarita Diet star took to Instagram to exclaim over her "best lunch over." Proving she totally gets us, she wrote: "If you love Thai food like I do, this is as good as it gets. I had to lie down after."
The colorful spread, served up at The Siam hotel, appeared to be chock full of fresh vegetables, noodles, spices, and even edible flowers to spruce it up a bit. The hotel actually has four on-site eateries, and we did a little FOMO-inspired digging to find out exactly what's on its menus.
Let's just say: We're craving green papaya salad with prawns, pumpkin soup with scallops, and spicy yellow curry with blue crab in a major way. And just so you know, the Siam's chefs also whip up char-grilled sliced black Angus beef, chicken with garlic lemongrass, and fish battered in Singha beer.
It's all enough to make us want to book a Thailand trip this instant. (But until then, Tofu Special #4 will have to tide us over.)
