| - Relatively new Spoon & Fork in the Woodbridge area. Some would say Japanese & Thai Cuisine don't mix at restaurants but the scenario differs when it's AYCE Dinner($24.99). Design of the space is elegant, chic bar lounge vibe at least front of house while the back has more formal intimate dining space. Impressive enough especially for the 75% or more Female clientele on a Friday evening. *Hint* for the guys to take the ladies.
Menu is standard Jap & Thai expectations as you're given a choice of either a-la-carte or AYCE. We went Sashimi crazy on the Jap while Shrimp crazy on the Thai as the service was very good with taking orders and topping up water glasses. Food is served fast as I never waited more than 10 minutes for an item.
The most surprising factor was the excellent quality of Thai menu items which were all flavourful, served fresh and hot. Spicy levels definitely has the right zing. Maybe if I were to note a con from the pros, the Pad Thai Rice Noodle were undercooked quite al-dente. Other than that, I enjoyed most of everything ordered.
Satay Chicken, Calamari, Curried Pumpkin Soup, Sushis, Makis, Takoyaki, Tempuras, Sashimis, Tamarind Tiger Shrimp, Spicy Seafood, Thai Red Curry Sauce Fish, Bangkok Street Style Pad Thai, Crab Fried Rice, etc...
For Dessert - Mango Salad(?).
That's cause dessert/drinks are not included within AYCE.
I felt sad for S&F cause I took them to the cleaners.
I felt sad for myself most of all since my friends called it quits after 2hrs.
It felt like the Neverending Story ending too early for me.
Unfinished business needs to be taken care of.
Otherwise known as I'll be back for AYCE Lunch($15.99).
