| - Just got back from a lovely dinner at Saveurs Thai. Very nice ambiance and decor. The waitresses were friendly, and the hostess was very accommodating when we called last minute to make a reservation (we were only a party of 2 so she was nice enough to squeeze us in although they were so called "full"). My date and I both had the Thai salad to start, which was AH-mazing! Not so much a typical salad, but a mix of fried noodles, green and red bell peppers, a bit of iceberg lettuce, lightly tossed in a sweet/ tangy sesame dressing. I would go back just for that :) As a main, I got a ginger, coconut milk and curry shrimp with rice, which was a huge portion. Very generous on the shrimp, I got 8 in my dish! It was good, with the right amount of kick to it, but overall nothing to write home about. My date got a similar dish but with beef, and felt the same way about his. We shared the "banana doughnut" for dessert, which is simply a deep fried banana served with vanilla ice cream. While it was tasty, there was too much batter which made for a very crunchy shell. The prices are reasonable, and the portion generous, which make it a good bet! Bonus: it's a BYOW :) Next time we go, we'll try the table d'hôte option where you grill your own meat skewers on a mini grill at your table! Looked like a cool concept but we didn't order because the meal contained a lot of meat, and it was served for 2 (I'm a "vegetarian".. but eat fish and seafood). A must try!
