Delicious and not too hard to prepare. The sauce is piquant and spicy, with nice layers of flavor, but it does not overwhelm the dish. We substituted regular vinegar and 1/2 tsp ground ginger in the sauce, and the flavor was still excellent. I'm so excited to find this - I've literally been looking for years for a good pad thai recipe to make at home, and finally found this one. All the others had undercooked noodles or a gooey, flavorless sauce, but this one really works! It's also a nice recipe for two people to tackle - one to do the sauce, and one to make the main dish.
