"5"^^ . "1"^^ . "I went here last week and they had only been open (a soft opening) for just a few weeks. They didn't have their liquor license ready yet, but that was just fine as I was really impressed with their food. The water carafes at the table made a bird chirping sound when you pour it which we thought was cute.\n\nWalking into the restaurant, I was a caught a little off guard as it didn't really look like a Thai restaurant. It had a very casual vibe to it with lots of wood paneling and travel knick knacks everywhere, not all of it Thai. It was almost like a mix of Tex Mex meets Tiki bar, but there was a table for six near the front that was elevated with a low table with floor cushions. My group wanted to be seated there as it would be cool to eat while sitting on the floor, but there was too many of us.\n\nThe waitor was excellent as he did an excellent job describing the dishes, which had some kind of story or meaning as they were dishes that the husband and wife chef served or created from their homeland and one dish was almost a love story between the two. It was great to hear that the dishes are prepared with love and soul, and it tasted just as good.\n\nI ordered the green coconut curry with basa fish which was served in a whole coconut. I really love the rich flavours and the lime leaf and other Thai aromatics. You could order any dish with any level of spiciness (5 levels), from no spice to Thai spice. I ordered mine Thai spice as the waitor mentioned that it wouldn't overpower the dish while still getting a good amount of heat that will make you sweat. I thought it wasn't that spicy which was fine as the curry flavor was so good and there is also some homemade Thai chili sauce at the table which you could add yourself.\n\nAfter our meal we were treated to the mango sticky rice pudding, which was sticky rice with a green hue from the Pandam extract, which gave it a nice almost coconut flavor and scent, and was topped with sliced ripe mangos. I thought it was nice, though a few people in my party had some aversions to rice pudding. Unfortunate for them, but lucky for me! \n\nPrices were very reasonable and their cocktail menu looked really interesting. It's a great casual unpretentious restaurant with a fun atmosphere.\nI will definitely be back!"^^ . . "2014-07-11T00:00:00"^^ . "0"^^ . "0"^^ . . .
