I'm from Vancouver where Thai food is still pretty traditional. So when in Toronto, I had to try one of their popular Thai Restaurants. Salad King in downtown Toronto is a happening place. I went there on a Saturday night and the place was packed. Our party of 4 had to squeeze into one of the communal tables. Sitting shoulder to shoulder with strangers really gave us a chance to see what others were eating.
The food was a little different than what I have become used to. Instead of shared plates it seemed that everybody was ordering their own meals. There was also some Asian fusion going on here, so I would not classify this as an authentic Thai restaurant. As for the taste, I like it a bit spicier and with more aroma.
Salad King is an interesting experience if you're ever in downtown Toronto and crave a little Thai food.
