Definitely a surprise. A Thai/Vietnamese resto in Koreatown? ok
We mostly went in because it's next to Hoda Kwaja and we didn't want to walk much further west as the concert we were going to later was north on Bathurst (best concert of the the year btw - Ensemble Polaris' Not the Nutcracker).
We both ordered the combo special - mini salad/mini soup/main/spring roll - $11.50 total. The salad was the Thai standard but the dressing was a bit peppier than usual which I really appreciated. My friend had the Tom Yum soup - just enough and maybe a bit too spicy for her. I can't do shrimp so they subbed a really nice chicken broth/mushroom soup for me - really clean and tasty tasting.
Chicken Pad Thai was our main. Too much for me to finish, so the lad upstairs is snacking on it now. Oddly (?) the main thing leftover was chicken. How often does that happen - too much meat in a combo dish? Well, it happened tonight.
The star of the meal was probably the crispy pork spring roll. It was a total surprise. Truly delicious and crispy - not one of those wobbly wonders you get in so many places - they didn't come out of a freezer box for sure.
Fast and super-friendly service on an early Saturday evening. Everything was clean - and the complimentary tea was flowing once they figured out we needed the first refill.
Random washroom location - sort of out the front door and upstairs - shared with an accounting office. Not the standard Toronto trip/slide into the basement.
We will definitely be back.
ohhhhhhhhh side note ... a real good point from my perspective - not too salty. I didn't need to sneak a gallon of water into the concert afterward as so often happens after Spadina/Annex/Danforth meals.
