We normally satisfy our Thai cravings at Pattya on Queen or Jattujak on Kingston Road but wanted to give Thai Indeed a try since it was closer to home. We ordered take out of the cold salad rolls, the Green curry with Chicken and the red curry with tofu and vegetables.
The bad first because our experience started with a negative
- unlike most Thai places, they could not make my red curry vegan friendly because the waitress said it had small amounts of fish sauce. Pattya and Jattujak had no problem accommodating my request. I decided to order anyways since I'm plant based for health vs ethics reasons
- the curries were watery in consistency and flavours were quite bland compared to the aforementioned places that were aromatic and deep flavoured
- I ordered no sugar in my curry but it was not expcitly noted in my order. My curry was quite sweet which made me suspicious whether they respected my dietary restriction. I decided not to eat it after a few spoonfuls to be safe.
The good
- there was no oil in the curries which the waitress mentioned is because they do not stir fry the curry.
The verdict - for the same price point, Jattujak offers better taste and dietary accommodations. For even better quality, pay a little more for Pattya.
