| - High Thai'd just happens to be in the same location as Mint Cafe, with the same menu, and the same decor. But, apparently, it's under new ownership, with a new chef. I asked if the menu would be changing too, and they indicated that it would not, but the new chef does cook some dishes slightly differently.
We are (were) diehard fans of Mint Cafe, so I was holding my breath the whole time. I can say that the two dishes we got tasted basically as I remembered them. The Masaman Curry has wonderful chunks of sweet potato that melt in your mouth. The 'ginger ginger' dish may have tasted a bit more chinese than I remember, but was still delicious. Next time, we'll have to try the ever important Country Style Pad Thai. I fell in love with thai food in Chicago, and the only pad thai in Cleveland that tastes anything like that is the Country Style.
The service was friendly, but rushed and uneven - but I seem to remember that at Mint Cafe, too. We'll be back for more!
