Santa Fe’s food scene is known for its diversity, and among the many culinary treasures, Bo’s Authentic Thai Food Truck stands out. Located conveniently in a bustling area of Santa Fe, this food truck has garnered attention and praise, including features in publications like the Santa Fe New Mexican. Driven by glowing reviews and local buzz, a visit to Bo’s Authentic Thai became a must-try experience.
The culinary journey began with the Spring Rolls, a delightful appetizer priced at $4.95. Five perfectly deep-fried rolls arrived with a flavorful sauce, setting a high bar for the meal to come.
Moving on to the main courses, the special of the day was Massaman Curry ($12.95), described as a “Thai and Indian style yellow curry.” This dish is rich with aromatic spices such as cardamon, cinnamon, cloves, star spice, cumin, bay leaves, and nutmeg. The Massaman Curry was served with a generous portion of Jasmine rice alongside potatoes, onions, and carrots. Diners have the option to choose their protein from chicken, pork, vegetables, or tofu, with beef available for a small upcharge.
The presentation of the Massaman Curry was enhanced by the fluffy Jasmine rice, and a closer look revealed the perfectly cooked vegetables. The curry offered a harmonious blend of flavors and textures, making it a satisfying and flavorful choice.
Another main dish sampled was the Green Curry ($12.95). This vibrant curry features coconut milk, bell peppers, carrots, and green beans, all topped with fresh basil leaves and served over Jasmine rice. The Green Curry was particularly impressive due to the quality and preparation of the vegetables. They maintained a delightful crunch, indicating perfect cooking. The portion of rice provided was ample to complement both curry dishes.
A closer view of the Green Curry highlights the variety and freshness of the crunchy vegetables, beautifully arranged on a bed of fragrant Jasmine rice.
