Fragrant and delicious!
One of 2 of my favourite Thai restaurants in Brighton (the other is The King and I). The 2 meals I have had there have both been wonderful and from my experience of Thailand, the flavours are truly authentic. The way everything is presented is delightful…think a Thai version of Bills with bundles of lemongrass and bunches of coriander surrounding earthenware dishes shaped like ducks full of steaming and fragrant red Thai curry. I opted for the roasted duck in Thai red curry last time and it was so delicious with plenty of duck meat (not all fat like at Sawadee) and peppers and pineapple.
The tables could do with being a bit bigger as by the time you have a bottle of wine, a jug of water, glasses, dishes of curry, their lids, bowls of rice and your main plate…there is just no room! One small gripe is that on both occasions the service hasn’t been very attentive and we have spent an awkward amount of time trying to get the attention of a waiter. Having said that, the quality of food more than makes up for any shortfalls!
