I'm a fan. At golden thai, you get great taste at great value, what more could you ask for in expensive Toronto? I trekked here with a coworker based on her glowing review of this resto. I ordered the lunch special with butterfly shrimp (let me warn you, the butterfly part is a real gimmick) and it comes with a generous plate of noodles, fried rice, pickled vegetables, one springroll and shrimp. I was a bit disappointed by the "butterfly" part but once I started digging in, I was completely overwhelmed and impressed by the flavour and perfection cooked into each mini dish. I do love that you get to try a little bit of everything.
The obvious drink of choice would be a tall glass of Thai-Style Iced Tea. Unfortunately, the iced tea fell short of my expectations. It was extremely fragrant and I felt that the actual taste of tea got lost in all the perfume. Definitely not my cup of tea.
That being said, I will return for some green thai curry or pad thai, only I wish it was closer to where I work.
