    A group of coworkers all went here for lunch today based on the recommendation of someone who couldn't stop raving about the green beans that she tried yesterday. The green beans were worth the hype and most of our other dishes were fantastic as well. The mixed vegetables with shrimp/chicken were bland but otherwise almost all that we tried was full of flavor. The eggplant smelled amazing and was such a vibrant purple. The marinated cucumbers were a nice not hot treat in between trying spicier dishes. The pig intestines were mouth numbingly spicy and they looked surprisingly like calamari. Those who were in the mood to try it did enjoy. The Thai iced tea was disappointing due to a funky flavor and after taste, but maybe it was an off day. For large groups they do add tip, it's totally reasonable but we didn't realize at first that it was included. Overall if I had more time in Oakland, I'd go back here to have more green beans and a whole lot of eggplant. Side note - it's cash only.

    Had to try a few new things on my work trip. Spices 3 has such an extensive menu that it will take me another 10 more trips before I get to taste everything in the menu. And the food is delicious! As many reviewers observed, this is a CASH ONLY restaurant. However, you can order take out online and pay by card. That is what I did. The cubed deep fried tofu snowed with crunchy bits of garlic, dried red chilli, and jalapeño... this dish is what will tempt me into the vegetarian world. This combination works really well! The other dish is not everyone's cup of tea but one of my favorite: pork intestine sautéd with basil and garlic. Slightly crunchy, the intestine was clean tasting with the basil and garlic rounding up one glorious mouthful at a time! Portions are generous, and I have enough for a second round tomorrow. Thank goodness for a microwave in the hotel room!
