Can you believe that this place used to be a Burger King? Mind blown.
It was pretty busy for an early Friday evening; there was a constant flow of people coming in and out to grab takeout. The inside is lush and relaxing with green walls, fish tanks and Thai music videos playing in the background.
- Coconut rice (#64) ($6.00 large) - fluffy and aromatic. Large was perfect amount to share between three.
- Matsaman curry with beef (#27) ($15.00) - I haven't enjoyed a matsaman curry in a long time but this one was great. We only got it "mild spicy"; the flavours were well balanced and harmonious.
- Green curry (#24) ($15.00) - green curry was also well executed and had a bit more heat to it than the matsaman.
- Pad thai (#54) ($15.00) - According to K, whose been here multiple times, the pad thai is usually awesome but something was off this time around. I thought the noodles were pretty lumpy and didn't have much spring to them. Just passable.
Tough to say how it matches up against White Elephant as I've only been once to both places but our meal at JT was solid enough.
