  • My recent weeknight visit didn't bring me any surprises since my first visit to their old location. Their new home on Bloor Street is steps away from my office, so I had high hopes there would be good variety and something to bring me back, or maybe that they'd be a good spot to hang out for a foodie style happy hour. Overall aside the size of the shop, nothing else stood out to me as exceptional. The same appetizers and small dishes were found, at slightly increased prices. Their crowd favourite squash fritter has gone from a golden arch to a set of pancake-like deep fried hash browns. My table also got taro rolls and shrimp chips to share - the taro rolls were tasty and not hard; the shrimp chips were crunchy not chewy. The portions seemed larger than I remembered from their old location, which is nice as they're charging more on average it seems. My coconut curry noodles were just the meal I was looking for - it was still a long night ahead for me back at the office. The thin rice noodles were a little clumped but once the curry sauce was poured over they soaked up the flavour nicely. The coconut was too strong and the curry was creamy - this was a completely not spicy dish as promised by my waiter. I ended up having leftovers that I ate for lunch the next day - even soaking in the leftover sauce the noodles kept most of their texture, though the microwave reheat did break down their chewy fibres. The portion size was good, and I would've finished the dish no problem had I not ordered any starters. The one confusing thing was the accompanying diced cucumber - refreshing indeed but it didn't seem to fit that well with the sauce. They also tended to make their way to the edge of the plate and were difficult to incorporate, perhaps shredded cucumber would work better to match the shape of the noodles. While the food is average, I do appreciate their location selection - Bloor and Yonge needed a cool Thai place, and their wide selection of vegan options is very ideal for capturing the local crowd. If spice levels were selectable, they could be a go-to for many people seeking something Asian for lunch as well.
