Did dinner takeout at California Thai in Crowfoot. Very good customer service. I had placed an earlier call for a takeout at 4 p.m. When I got there about 5 mins earlier, they were starting on my order. They made sure that my food was hot and freshly cooked when I got there. I didn't mind waiting. It gave me a chance to look around the new restaurant. Some booths and lots of tables. It's like a cafeteria-style restaurant with an open kitchen. I like the white elephants with their trunks up high. You know, it brings good luck if the elephants with raised trunks face the door/window, which they were! Lots of dishes to order from.
My order consisted of:
- Chicken Coconut Soup - Creamy and coconutty soup with chopped up lemongrass and a Red Thai chilly.
- Pad Thai - Golden sauce - A hefty portion of pad Thai noodles with plump, juicy shrimp.
- Basal Fish Yellow curry - Delicious fish curry with chopped up green peppers, tofu, red onions.
- Stir-fried Green Beans with peanuts - I like this! Very well done. It says green beans but they are actually snap pea pods. Delicious, nonetheless!
- Big portion of steamed white rice to eat with the fish and the green beans.
The heat was all just right for me. I even got extra red chili sauce as I like it spicy.
Turns out this restaurant is owned by the same owner up by the Costco in Beacon Hill.
Will be back!
