Papaya Thai Restaurant, Moreno Valley, CA

It is a bit hard to find good restaurants in the valley, but this is one of my favorite Thai restaurant in Moreno Valley. Their lunch specials are one of the best deals for students around the area. For just $5.95 you get soup, egg roll, fried wonton, rice, and the entree of your choosing. I've been the restaurant quite a few times and they haven't disappointed me yet.

If you love eggplant, you should definitely try their Spicy Eggplant Dish. Regrettably, I did not have a camera with me to capture this savory dish. But, I did remember once. Here are a few dishes.


Spicy Mint Leaves: Beef, onions, chili peppers.

Price: $5.95

This is a very simple dish but it very well marinated. My favorite part of this restaurant are the personal touches like the thinly sliced carrot and the peas on the white rice to form the happy face. It was a bit cheesy, but heart warming.


Rama Rama: Chicken satay in peanut sauce.

Price: $5.95

If you love peanuts, then this is the dish for you. But for the average person, this may be a bit too strong on the peanut side. Luckily, I love peanuts.
