Looking for authentic Thai food in Brampton is quite a task. Usually when you find a place its usually a mixture of Vietnamese/Pho/Thai or Chinese/Thai. Not to say that this isn't good...its just not the same as a place that specializes in traditional Thai recipes. On recommendations for Yelp GTA Elites..I was directed to Freshly Thai with a guarantee of authentic Thai recipes and preparation.
Located in the central core of downtown Brampton, not far from the main intersection of Queen and Hurontario, you will a find a somewhat out of place building in the middle of taller buildings in the core. Freshly Thai is a family owned business and you can feel that welcome family feeling when you arrive. We were greeted warmly and were quickly sat. The dining room is not that large, but large enough for about 20 tables. The menu has all the traditional Thai dishes that I love. Red curry, Green Curry, Yellow Curry, Pad Thai, Khao Sao Kai (curry noodle soup) and other great dishes. I ordered the Pineapple Curry Chicken with white rice with a Thai Chicken roll starter and the wife ordered the traditional Pad thai with Chicken. Service was fast and friendly and when I went to use the restroom I passed by the kitchen and you can see the family working hard to prepare your meal. Our meal arrived with beautiful cut vegetable flowers adorning my wife's Pad Thai and a generous portion of Pineapple Chicken curry in a bowl. The taste was amazing and the flavours were right on target. After our meal I ordered a "Thai" coffee (its served with condensed milk) to finish.
All the recommendations and reviews were right...authentic Thai food...family owned...fast and friendly service. 5 Stars!!!
