After working a long weekend at the Toronto Vegfest, I was zooming up Mt. Pleasant, hoping to spot a food spot. Loving Thai food in general I spotted ThaiSpicyHouse's sign and did a quick U-turn. Pulled up front and went inside around 10 PM to see if I could get some take- out for me and Heather (who was wanting take out as she has to still drive on to Ajax).
Lovely 20s Indonesian guy took my order and made a couple of recommendations after I asked him as to what was fresh, flavourful and slightly spicy. Ended up with veggie rice paper rolls that where delicious displayed on a bed of lettuce with julienned carrots and a tasty dipping sauce, a green mango salad that had plenty of delectable mango, red onion and red pepper - yum - next time I would add a touch more spice. The basil chicken that was full of veggeis, sweet basil leaves, garlic and chilli pepper and garnished with citrus slices.
Next time I'm back through Toronto I would hit this spot again. Most items ranged around $10 - $14. Portion sizes are decent. And the food was just want I wanted.
The only downfall (and this applies to the majority of restaurants in Toronto) is the unfriendly packaging used i.e styrofoam and plastic utensils. I once saw someone bring in their own takeout containers - kudos to her.
