This saddens me.....not sure when my palate turned the proverbial corner on this place but it was right before we watched a waiter bring a huge vat-o-soup to a neighboring table and watched him serve (ladle) scoop fulls of hot bun bo hue to eagerly awaiting customers. He slightly nodded and wished them..in my estimation, bon appetite!
Our mouths watered with anticipation for the same presentation.
Much to our surprise, the same waiter brought the same soup to our table....sat it down...placed the serving ladle in the vat-o-bun bo hue and walked away without spriceless. a ?? (enjoy). We shared a silent "wtf" amongst our table guest.
I shrugged off feelings of embarrassment as I had bragged about this place to friends and family and chalked it up to "must be an off night?
Fast forward to the dish I'd ordered each visit....crispy fried whole fish.
Our table mates entrees arrived slowly.. which is unusual, but my crispy fried fish arrived when everyone was finished. it
was the worst ever.stale, old and over cooked. I should have known by the side way glances from the wait staff that something was amiss.
Usually the owner visits each table, but we were avoided that night.
sad to say we have not returned since that night. when I do suggest Siam,I am met with this reminder: seriously?
in this economy, second chances are priceless.
