I struggled writing this review. The food was great, but the line up is obnoxious- not to mention you have a 4 square foot section to stand in to wait to be seated. I like my fellow Torontonians, but not enough to be all up in their personal space.
We started with the Gai Taud Samoon Prai (crispy fried chicken) and Po Pia Pak Sod Gai Yaw (fresh rolls filled with sausage and veggies). The chicken had a hint of kaffir lime leaf and a delightful dipping sauce. Crunchy on the outside, tender on the inside. The fresh rolls were like nothing I've eaten before. Unique flavors and came with this garlic, tamarind, peanut sauce.
The group I was with decided to order three entrees to share. We got the massaman curry with beef, street pad thai with chicken and Pad Gra Pra with beef. All of them were cooked to perfection, seasoned well and served to us quickly. The street pad thai is the funky, wild sibling of the regular pad thai. Totally worth trying.
I really have no complaints about the food. I'm actually quite shocked. If this place were less crowded, I would definitely come more often.
