| - Definitely hidden away, all that marks this little nook (for now, anyway), is a letter-size piece of paper with Khao San Road on the door, which is located just beside Ravi Soups on Adelaide. Thankfully, once inside, the food and interior is much more complete, and make for a perfect casual dining experience.
Service is incredibly friendly, and the food is delicious. Highly recommend the garlic shrimp - succulent, breaded, butterflied shrimp with crazy good flavour, and with 8 pieces at $9, this is perfect for at least 3 people to share.
Next up were street style Pad Thai and one of their "specials", spicy chicken on rice (the name escapes me now). Portions were hearty (enough for leftovers), and the flavours were dynamic, but not too overwhelming.
Bonus: we stuck around late, and the manager sent us dessert on the house - a coconuty tapioca dessert soup of sorts. Though just a bit too sweet for my palette, it was a creamy and warm capper to a relaxed meal.
Having been open for just over a week, there are still a couple kinks they're working out. For example, fluctuating music volumes for their at-times odd music choices, some confusion with what credit cards they accept (not Amex, btw), and no hot water drinks (warm tap is the best they could do), but I'm certain these will be smoothed over in no time.
When word gets out, count on this place being packed with the lunchtime crowd!
