| - After finding out my favorite Thai restaurant is closed Monday's, I desperately search yelp mobile for the closest Thai restaurant. This one wasn't too far of a drive so I excitedly drive over to 35th Avenue and Bell. I find Touch of Thai in a less than nice strip mall, but I know better than to judge a book by it's cover.
I walk in, and am greeted not only by the hostess, but a smell. Not a "oh my, the food smells DELISH", but a "what the hell is that?" kinda smell.
This is the night that I finally figured out that NO THAI RESTAURANT should ever SMELL. Any of the ones that I've ever given terrible reviews for have had a stench!
The menu is weird to say the least. It's like I'm in a thai restaurant but am looking at a chinese menu.
The service was mediocre, and the food was less than average. I ordered my green curry a 10 on the spicy scale, and my sister ordered her spicy noodle at a 5. They screwed up and gave her the 10 and me the 5. Boy was a jealous as she was sitting across from me sweating and blowing her nose, while I add chili powder, Thai chilli's and red peppers to get that wonderful burn! No such luck...no 10, and I kinda ruined the flavor. DARN! If only they would've listened. The green curry wasn't the best I've had. Not a variety of vegetables that I love and get from Siam Thai.
The waitress checked on us maybe 3 times the entire meal, and she took 10 minutes to bring our check.
"People on YELP love us" says the sticker on their door...well I'm a people and I don't love you.
