| - This has been my to eat list for quite some time, and finally I got the chance and time to enjoy this with my Mom and younger brother. Its actually not that far from where I work as well, and I always crave great Thai food... When we arrived around 1ish there was two ppl waiting, and we were the next but got seated before them....SWWEEETTT!!!!
The menu is very simple and has a picnic style table. We started with the Garlic Tofu which is deep fried with a sauce to dip. Its nice, crispy and tasty without really needing the sauce I find.
My bro ordered the Pad Gra Prao which is minced meat with holy basil and rice. This is like traditional minced meat with rice, but with a bit of a better flavour taste than usual.
My Mom got the curry of the day which is red with chicken. I find they don't have good seafood selection. The curry was nice tasting with strong taste of coconut broth. The rice portion is not that big.
I got the Chef's special Pad Thai which is elevated taste and a bit different from the street style. My Mom said it was quite salty for her, but when I taste this dish, it taste more sour if anything. Not overly sour, but enough to get you drinking your water often. Not to worry, because I got their famous Thai Ice Tea!!! It was quite sweet tasting, kind of a bubble tea flavour at times, but quite refreshing. The glass was quite big, but for $4.5 it should be considering they add quite a bit of ice as well.
Although the portions all seem not that big, we ended not finishing and packing the pad thai which is quite surprising. I believe I will come back again for this joint to have some Thai since its not that far from my work.
Bill came up to $52 before tips...
Is it the best? It ranks pretty good, but I'd say there is better out there Yelpers!!!
