| - Saturday night my boyfriend and I decided to give My Thai a second try. The first trip gave us a few mixed signals, but the food was worth it to risk returning. Well, it totally paid off.
We were promptly seated and left alone while we tried to decide what we wanted. When trying to make up our minds, we got a recommendation for plum sake from (who I believe was) the manager who was also very helpful in answering a tricky question. When we stopped in last time, my boyfriend was eyeing the food that was brought to the table next to us, and upon explaining it to the manager he directed us to the exact item on the menu. This made my boyfriend reaaallly excited.
We like to indulge in sushi on occasion and thought we'd give it a shot here. We ordered a simple eel roll for an appetizer that was ok. It was little saucy and Americanized, but not bad. Definitely not spoiled or rancid. I'm not sure if I'd order it again though...
For dinner I ordered the prig king (chicken and green beans in a spicy sauce) but asked if they could add some broccoli and carrots to the stir fry. To my delight the dish came our loaded with the veggies I requested and then some! I love my vegetables so this was a bonus for me. My boyfriend of course ordered the Siamese chicken (the mystery no-name dish from our first experience) in complete confidence of the managers knowledge. It came out exactly as he expected: piled high with battered chicken surrounded by broccoli and carrots.
The food was quick, hot, and delicious. The service was attentive, super helpful, but not overbearing. After being consistently disappointed in the service at Siam Terrace for about a year now, I think My Thai has become their replacement. I'm really glad we gave it a second chance.
