Never had bamboo in my krapow (chicken basil) before, and this was like a bamboo salad with a ton of it with not that much chicken, and the chicken that was in it was just shredded and not minced. There's also wasn't much flavor either other than the Thai basil. On the other hand, the radna was good with shrimp. They are really nice, and the food came out really quick, but i just think there's better Thai restaurants in Chinatown, especially with the weird atmosphere here, almost feels like a drive-in, but it's still nice having decent thai food in Nuuanu.
