At this sedate Pan-Asian restaurant, you would be well advised to study the menu. Think of it as your rough guide to a palate that’s worlds away from your own, particularly if yours was raised, as mine was, on meat loaf and mashed potatoes. (Note to the uninitiated: The spicy shrimp paste, a staple in Thai cooking, emits a funky odor that overwhelms the diner and dampens the appetite.) To those looking for
a bowl of pho comparable to Mom’s or Auntie’s, Noodle Planet (its name is a misnomer—for it serves more than noodles) will seem like home or at least remind you of Monterey Park.
