Gone??? Could NOT find it. June 8, 2013…

This restaurant just opened a few months ago at what I believe had been the site of another Thai restaurant. As someone who spends a month or two in Thailand each year for both business and vacation I was very happy to find this place. This is the first Thai restaurant I’ve been to in years where the dishes actually do taste like they do in Thailand. The staff tells me they import a lot of their ingredients from there, which adds to the authenticity of the flavors. No over-​chemicaled items in these dishes! Another thing in their favor is that if you want it spicy you can get it spicy. Even at the better-​known Thai restaurants around they’ll still ease up on the heat for us «falang», even when we ask for it spicy.
The staff is very friendly and attentive, and they even help me with my feeble efforts to speak Thai with them. The food is amply proportioned and very reasonably priced. They don’t offer any deserts yet, but may in the future. In the meantime, I’m making this a regular stop.
Addendum 12÷29÷07:
I’ve been eating here pretty regularly since my initial review, and now have one more bit of info to share. On almost every visit I’ve been the only «falang» (westerner) eating there. Pretty much every other patron I see dining there is Thai, which should tell you a lot about the quality of the food.
