| - I'm personally shocked that I had to add this Leslieville listing AND that I'm getting an FTR for it, because at 6pm the place was bustling with activity and every table was taken!
There was the young couple to the right who were pounding back a bottle of Veuve Clicquot and arguing about control issues (not eavesdropping wasn't an option - my guess is they were talking about either a mother-in-law or a bridezilla), the group of tourists to the left who promptly ordered Pad Thai and barely lifted their snouts from their plates, and an assortment of other characters in the tiny restaurant.
Service was very friendly and welcoming and our waitress was prompt with water refills and our food order. She clearly took a workshop in Hostessing 101 because she was there to refill our water when we needed it, had multiple suggestions for our orders yet was never pushy, knew the menu inside and out and offered to wrap up our food without being prompted.
I wanted red veg curry but when I asked for something spicier I was offered the Malaysian curry (which I didn't even see on the menu....oooh, special) with salad and rice. It was a huge portion and I was barely able to put a dent in it. There were all sorts of goodies marinating in the spicy sauce - bok choy, broccoli, tofu, red peppers, and yes, even the dreaded baby corn. AND YET I LIKED IT. Could this be the dawning of a corn conversion?
They also offer local delivery and 10% off for pickup orders.
