  • Cheap beer (Guinness is $2.50...) and good effort all-around. The large Tom Kha Kai was tasty and served in a pottery hot-pot with a heating element. Pretty cool vessel! Much less utilitarian-looking than the typical stainless bundt-cake pan thing that Thai restaurants serve their large soup in. Wings: surprisingly cheap. A dozen for $7. But smallish, so don't expect jumbo flappers. Tried 2 flavors: 'Thai BBQ' and the 'Gra-pow Basil'. The 'Thai BBQ' flavor was nondescript, but the 'Gra-pow Basil' wings were very tasty if you like Thai Basil (I do.) Jungle Curry with Chicken: big disappointment. How can one *not* order the "Jungle Curry"? Yeah, it sounds awesome but then we all realized that the broth tastes just like the liquid in a can of bamboo shoots. One spoon to the mouth and I was done. I can imagine some idiot local restaurant critic (dressed up in a stupid white penguin suit) saying, "Oh, I LOVE Jungle Curry. Jungle Curry is the BEST" just because "Jungle Curry" sounds like something you're supposed to like. Don't fall for it. Stick with Panang, Green, Red, Massaman, Pineapple... Panang Curry w/Steamed Tofu: probably the best of the dishes we ordered. Unfortunately it was served on a huge platter, making spooning the curry impossible without lifting up the plate. A pet peeve - Thai curry should be served in bowls, not on plates. For the record, the curry was no better than say, Thai-style Noodle House or Weera Thai. It was just good to get back to basics after the Jungle Curry letdown. Duck Curry: pretty good. The duck itself was a little on the dry side. The pineapple curry it was bathed in was savory and sweet as expected. Again, served on a huge platter so it was a challenge keeping the duck on the plate and scooping onto my rice. At $16 this dish is all the money. Probably wouldn't order it again - it wasn't 2X as good as their basic Panang. Brown Rice: poorly-reheated instant rice mania with a mushy consistency. Ate it only because it came out at the same time as our curries. Same brown rice consistency that Pan Asian serves. I concede that beggars can't be choosers when it comes to Brown Rice. Just glad they have it. To be fair, we were with other people so we didn't order the whole fish or the steak. Will try these things next time, hopefully inspiring an update.
