| - Meh. I was so excited to have Thai food because I had been craving something soupy and/ or carby.
We arrived around 5 p.m. and got outdoor seating because of the nice weather. I ordered the tom yum soup with shrimp ($6CAD) and the stir-fried noodles with duck ($16CAD, I forget the actual name, but it's listed right under the pad thai on the menu), while MC ordered the pad thai ($16CAD).
Soup (3/5): Looked good, tasted fine. The shrimp was really weird, though. I'm not sure how to describe it, other than maybe a bit of a soapy taste? In retrospect, I should have gotten tofu or veggies instead of the shrimp.
Duck noodles (2.5/5): While the duck was decent, the noodles were pretty bad. They were hard and cold, undercooked and salty. For a while, I was just picking at the veggies because those were the only ingredient with some moisture that the rest of the dish lacked.
Pad thai (4/5): I've always been a fan of vegan/ vegetarian pad thai, and this did not disappoint. In fact, it was the redeeming factor of the meal, food-wise. I ended up eating all of MC's leftovers, hehe.
There are also prix fixe options, but I believe those were $50CAD/ person, which is vastly overpriced for Thai food, IMO.
