My absolute favorite Isaan Thai place now has a branch in Penasquitos, and they take credit cards and reservations, unlike the original in Linda Vista. Shirley and I scouted it the other night, and I think it will work well for a FT dinner. It's larger and nicely appointed, and the food was just as good. แซบอีหลี (sab-e-lee) means "yummy."

Isaan/Isan is northeastern Thailand and the food is Lao influenced Thai. It tends to be spicy, but of course can be ordered mild. Sab-E-Lee has a realistic spiciness scale from 1-10. I am reasonably conversant with the cuisine, have tried many of the dishes here and can help with suggestions.
I am suggesting
NOTE: 5:00pm on Sunday October 27. Rancho Penasquitos is very centrally located in the county. There is ample parking and it is not far from the freeway.
