| - Jatujak is a mid-town Scarborough Thai restaurant located in a small plaza that's easy to pass by unnoticed. If you are heading south on Victoria Park, it's almost an immediate right turn after Sweeney Drive.
This restaurant is not big so making reservations might be beneficial, but you can also walk in casually, just expect to wait a bit especially if you have a large group. We came on a Saturday night once as a group of 4 and 90% of the tables had a reserve sign on. Thankfully my friends worked their magic to somehow secure a table.
Compare to downtown Thai restaurants, I enjoyed Jatujak very much. Their portion size and flavours were great. Its hard to find good Thai cuisine nowadays.
My boyfriend ordered the Pad Thai with Chicken (+$1). Personally, I thought it was super delicious with a hint of sweetness and sourness together. I can't describe how delicious it was. Too bad it wasn't my order. However, my BF felt the Pad Thai had less fish sauce flavour than needed.
As for my dish, I had the Khao Soi with Chicken and asked for less spicy. The noodles were great and the served amount was perfect, unlike some places that gave less noodles yet with a big bowl of soup. The sauce is awesome too - not too thick, spice level mild and just right, and the aroma was fantastic. I did notice there were a lot of onions cooked in this Khao Soi, not sure if it's like that or they added it to make it more original. Overall, I thought the chicken meat was least satisfying. It was decent and thinly sliced but nothing special.
Another dish our group ordered was a curry masan. The sauce was different than your typical curry or the Khao Soi. It was really tasty and interestingly, I noticed they filled the rice bowl to the max, almost spilling the sauce inside.
Just to fill my taste buds with more Thai flavour, I ordered the Nom Ye green milk (thinking it was Thai-styled iced tea). It tasted like Melona Popsicles haha. It was another visit that I finally tried their iced tea and it was refreshing!
Come dessert time, we ordered the Mango Sticky Rice which was really well done. The presentation was excellent being multicolored. Although different in colour, they all taste identical - the warmth and sweetness, accompanied with just the right amount of syrup. Likewise, the mango wasn't sour yet everything on the plate was chewy.
In general, Jatujak service was good. The waitress was smiling and kind, and she also helped take a group picture for us amidst the busyness. They refilled the water jar consistently and didn't rush us to pay or leave either.
