| - Sukho Thai a.k.a pretty darn yummy. Hands down the BEST thai food I've had in Toronto, though admittedly my forays into thai cuisine have not been very extensive. However, a short-lived #1 is still better than nothing in my opinion :).
I fell in love with the green curry at Sukho Thai, and consequently Sukho Thai itself, due to the multi-dimensional flavors that seem to be infused within the curry, a feat which I have not experienced in any other Thai restaurant.
To compare the best with something not so great, I very recently had green curry chicken at Asian Bowl near Yonge and Dundas and it was not only too sweet to be green curry (since green curry is known to be the spiciest of thai curries) but when i asked for extra spicy, they simply added more chilies to it. So in effect, the flavors of the curry were not as one, but more segregated - the sweet curry on one hand and the spiciness of the chilies on the other. It tasted flat and bland and representative only of the coconut milk itself, so compared to Sukho thai, whose curry was a marriage of its different dimensional qualities, Asian bowl's was more of like a divorce, or a separation waiting to be one.
I've had the pad thai as well at Sukho Thai and it was O.k, not the best in my opinion, so I continue to be on the lookout.
But as for the green curry, I think I've found where green curry dies and goes to heaven.
