Created as part of a cooking contest around the 1950s, if I'm not mistakened. It was a contest to create a "new" national food as part of a nationalism drive by the then-incumbent prime minister.
I was introduced to Pad Thai here in the Philippines, but it wasn't until I went to Bangkok that I realized just how delicious it was. It seemed like in my short stay there I had Pad Thai at least once a day.
