I recently visited The Original Sab-E-Lee in Rancho Penasquitos and was pleasantly surprised by their authentic Thai flavors! 🌶️ I ordered the Tom Yum soup at a spice level 3, but I should’ve heeded the advice to stick to a 2 - it was quite fiery!

The soup was delicious, and the portion sizes were generous. I loved their extensive tea selection, perfect for a cozy meal.
