| - How is it that I have not been to this restaurant before?
This restaurant seats about 50 people and even though we were late leaving the office for lunch, luckily there was one table left and with us seated, the restaurant was full by 12:30pm!
Vietnamese Delight has a few 'lunch' specials (available 11am - 5pm!) for $6.99 that include either soup or a spring roll but I opted to order from the main 'placemat' menu and had the Malaysian Curry Chicken with rice for $6.99.
The dish consisted of a bowl of skin on, bone in chicken thighs with potatoes in a curry sauce and a plate of rice. Although this dish was quite delicious, I doubt I would order it again.
Here's the thing... I get the whole 'cooking with the skin and bone adds flavour' but it's just too much work to eat and the chicken can tend to be undercooked, as it was in my case.
This dish ended up being mostly rice, a bit of potato and, after discarding all of the overly pink and red pieces, very little chicken. Although I do have to say, if it wouldn't have been completely inappropriate, I would have asked for a straw to slurp up every last bit of that curry sauce! Mmmm.
This restaurant is clean and nicely decorated. Despite the fact that they were completely full, the service was quick and friendly. I'll definitely be back to sample other items from their menu.
Note: They only accept cash or debit and there is a $0.25 surcharge for using debit. Shouldn't this be considered part of the cost of doing business? Why is this being passed on to the customer?
