The scene: Peaceful Thai melodies float through the restaurant, the maroon decor promotes feelings of relaxation and the glowing candles at ?the table seem to represent ?the restaurant: a bright spot ?in this part of town. The tranquility here will melt ?any stress away. Attentive, knowledgeable and patient staff top off a dining experience that should cost the earth – but doesn’t.
The grub: Tantalised by ?the aromas wafting from ?the kitchen, my party of ?four gets stuck right in.
The starter platter for two (perfect thai fishcakes, fresh spring rolls – prawn and vegetable – and succulent chicken satays) is a prelude to greatness: the aromatic duck pancakes are melt-in-the-mouth goodness. It’s crucial this dish becomes part of your experience.
The mains – a hearty pad Thai; a tender lamb massaman; a sumptuous red chicken curry; and a zingy chicken- ?and-holy-basil stirfry – are all fresh and right on the money.
Behind the bar: Wine ?– articulately recommended ?– from £12.50 a bottle.
Bill please: Four meals ?and a bottle of wine for £65. Definite value for money.
Verdict: This is Thai food of the highest quality. Book now.
