I had Patpong Curry for lunch today. It's NOT only available in Patpong but you can find this dish on the menu of most Thai restaurants in Bangkok.
Wondering how is this related to the popular Bangkok red-light district Patpong? Sorry to disappoint you but it's not - at least that's how the name of this dish is uttered in Thai (Pat-Pong).
I ordered it with chicken and I just had to shout out "Kai Patpong Curree" (Thai: ไก่ผัดผงกะหรี่) to the waiter dude. It's delicious yet it tastes nothing like the average Thai food! You should try it out for yourself.

hahaha, fantastic. I'm thai and it took me forever to get it...until I read the thai part, that is.
Pat pong ga-ri == fried [in] powder[ed] curry... i.e. the name of the dish means [chicken/shrimps/crab/whatever] fried with curry powder.
