We were looking for a new place to try for dinner. I absolutely love Thai food so we googled 'Best Thai Restaurants in Calgary'.
This restaurant was the first on the list so away we went.
Easy to find, ample parking. The staff seated us promptly and were very friendly.
Drinks and menus were brought quickly.
We ordered the appetizer platter the Royal Thai Sa-On which had 2 of each of the following: KRA THONG THONG Royal deep fried mini basket crepes topped with ground pork, chicken and corns. SHAW UONG: A purple flower-like traditional Thai dumpling stuffed with ground pork and chicken. SAKUNA SHOM SUAN: Royal style deep fried, bird-like Thai shrimps. PAU PIA TOD: Thai Sa-on deep fried spring rolls with ground pork, silver noodles, carrot, onion, and egg. THONG MUAN YAD SAI: Deep fried stuffed and marinated ground pork rolls. SATAY: chicken, topped with house peanut sauce.
We enjoyed everything, with the exception of the purple flower appetizer, it was a little squishy in texture, just not to our taste.
I also had the I had the soup TAM YAM PUG: Spicy and sour vegetable soup with lemon grass, galanga and kaffir-lime leaves. It was delicious, very refreshing, a nice hint of spice and flavour.
My partner ordered the KEE MOA NUA: Drunken beef with roasted chili paste, chili and cooking wine and GOONG MA KHAM: Shrimps in tamarind sauce with cashews, onions, carrots & green peppers. He has never had Thai food before, he ate nearly all of it and thoroughly enjoyed it.
I ordered KANG KIEW WAN GOONG: Shrimps in green curry coconut milk sauce with zucchini and green peppers. It had a perfect balance of vegetables, flavour-rich sauce and mixed with the coconut rice, an absolute win.
Prices were very good, beautiful decor, very clean and great ambience.
Will definitely be going again.
