good veg food in thai restaurant .pls guide?

Good vegetarian Thai food is hard to find in most restaurants because Thais add fish sauce, shrimp paste, or oyster sauce to soups, stir-fries, appetizers, etc. Here are some dishes that you can ask the restaurant to change a little.

-tom yum- sour thai soup (with only vegetables and made with vegetable stock, no fish sauce)
- tofu pad ka prao-stir-fried tofu with basil (ask for no oyster sauce)
- vegetarian pad thai (no shrimp, shrimp paste)
- vegetarian spring rolls (no shrimp)
- vegetarian green/red/yellow curry (no fish sauce/meats)
