The Spot:
Very small, intimate place with seating that has you pretty close to your neighbours. Some may find this awkward, I choose to call it "cozy".
Service:
Usually a mix of the Thai ladies who own the place and a sprinkling of white girls from Pickering. I have always found each and every staff member here to be warm, friendly and accommodating (keep in mind the majority of the time I do take-out). When eating in, the dining-ware is pretty cool, and many of the curry/broth dishes are served in a mini-cauldron and kept bubbling with a small flame.
The Grub:
A caveat: the food is much better when eaten in the restaurant, in particular the Pad Thai, which suffers greatly after a few minutes cooling. I'll only go in detail about our usual dishes, but there are a variety of appetizers, salads, soups, curries, roti (much different than Caribbean style), and noodle & rice dishes. All dishes are prepared fresh by authentic Thai nationals.
Spring Roll: crispy, fresh, delicious.
Chicken Wings : AMAZING. Mild or Spicy, fried and tossed with a tamarind-based sauce, chiles and sautéed onions.
Mango Salad: fresh mango and an assortment of vegetables, not sure what the dressing is but very tasty.
Pineapple-fried rice: chicken, shrimp, cashews, pineapple, plenty of veggies (carrot, onions, bokchoy) and crispy fried onions on top.
Cashew nut: a sweet sauce with cashews, mushrooms, carrots, onions and tomatoes, and your choice of meat (beef, chicken, seafood). I suggest beef with this one.
Red Curry: A mild coconut-curry broth with veggies and your choice of meat. Served with steamed rice.
Milkshakes: awesome and homemade, come in a variety of flavours (mango, strawberry, coconut, pineapple. I usually go coconut or pineapple.
