I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my Pad Thai turned out really dry. I think I might have used too little sauce.

This recipe was a disaster! The sauce was bland, and the shrimp were overcooked.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my Pad Thai didn't turn out as good as I hoped. I think I might have overcooked the noodles.

This Pad Thai was a bit too spicy for me, but it was still very good. I'll definitely be making it again, but I'll use less chili pepper next time.
