| - Decided to stop by for lunch and was pleasantly surprised by this little mom n pop.
The restaurant isn't too big, couple of tables in the middle flanked by four booths on each side. Bangkok Orchid seems to be family run which is usually means you get better and more personalized service. Coming in during lunch, it was great to a wide selection of lunch specials priced at $5.95.
I had the chili mint chicken level 8, crab ragoons, and a thai iced tea with boba. My entree, the chili mint comes in a little bento box style plate, complete with salad, a scoop of rice, a eggroll, egg drop soup, and a generous portion of the chicken. The chicken is delicious; very similar to what you would find in the lettuce wrap filling at PF Changs. But I will say that level 8 isn't as spicy as it sounds.
The crab ragoons were great, about 8 small empanda style ragoons stuffed with imitation grab and cream cheese. A perfect appetizer. My thai iced tea was pretty good but it would been nicer if it was a little bigger for the $3 they charged for it.
Overall Bangkok Orchid is a great gem for anyone looking for Asian fare. Definitely check it out.
