| - A wonderful experience with a culturally rich interior that can make you forget that your in downtown Calgary.
A note: It is located on the second floor, so it lacks disability access for people who struggle in climbing the stairs.
At first, the entrance of the restaurant was greeted with a dark, uninviting set of stairs. It reminds me of a haunted house.
Every time I go to a Thai restaurant, I always order a Thai ice tea and it was amazing. It was refreshing, cold and just the right amount of that oh so sweet evaporated milk. I highly recommend it.
Our first order was the calamari. It was nicely presented, cooked well, but it was bland. You have to add the sweet and sour sauce that came with it to add flavor.
Our main course was pad thai and hor mok kai, chicken wrapped in banana leaf with zucchini, basil and red curry paste. The chicken was really good that my girlfriend reminded of her food back home in the Philippines and it goes well with coconut rice. The pad Thai, on the other hand, was OK, nicely presented, but it lacked spiciness, and nuts which I love. The sauce could've been done better by adding just a bit more.
One of my Thai food craves to go. Overall, it was a great experience and I will definitely come back for more.
