So...So Bowl is right across the street from the Leaning Tower on Touhy. Park in front of the restaurant (not in Papa Chris lot). The restaurant is small, with about 8 tables. When I arrived, there was a couple of men at a table by the window. They were having a normal volume conversation, and maybe it was because the restaurant is small, but I heard...every...word. TBH it wasn't too interesting (sounded like a networking interview) but every so often I heard one of the men say he was interested in a "sociopath" position. That's not what he actually said, but I wasn't fully paying attention so that's what I heard. I had Crab Rangoon, which was pretty standard, although there were sharp pointy sections that were overly browned and crispy without filling. I ordered Tom Kha soup with shrimp. It was more hot (in temp and spice) than sour, although a generously sized bowl and the shrimp were not shrimpy sized but large. I was a little worried that the red tint of the soup meant it would be too spicy, but it was fine. The Thai iced coffee was fine, a very generous portion. The iced rose milk tea as well as the iced green milk tea looked refreshing but they told me it was dairy and didn't offer other milk options do I stayed with the Thai coffee. I would come back to try some other Thai dishes, maybe the curry. Backing out blind into two lanes of traffic made me very anxious.

Excellent Thai food, very friendly service. Nice little place of the side of the road, feels like a family run place, the vibe was informal and personable. I got the Massaman curry, it has a pleasant smokiness and more complex flavors than I'm used to, it was a very pleasant surprise. My partner got the Green Curry and said "it's the best green curry I've had since Boston", which was a few years ago, we're new to the area and have been jonesing for a Thai place that hits both of our preferences, this is it! The spice level scale isn't "American spicy", but it isn't the spiciest scale at a Thai restaurant I've ever seen. I got a 3/5 spice level, being a coconut milk curry it was a delightful whole mouth spicy, it was delicious and cleared my sinuses slowed me down a little bit I still stuffed myself.
