When a chef who worked for 9 years at Scaramouche, my favourite restaurant in the city, I listen. And when he wrote about this place in the Globe & Mail, I had to check it out.
The Gaeng Masaman is by far the best I have ever tasted and my wife had the Red Curry. Not as creamy as uptown at Joy Thai, but exceptional none the less. The warmed tapioca and coconut dessert dish was delicious and the spring rolls, although fried, were anything but greasy and positively perfect.
After years of flat, uninspiring chain food like Spring Rolls, this place makes flavours jump to life.
The service can be a little bit erratic, but it's pure Thai in its serving culture and style. Don't even think about waiting. Go.
