This is our first time here and if we were local, we'd be regulars. First we ordered a "Thai tea with coconut milk" and when it came it looked like a Caesar (or an bloody Mary? For the US folks) but it's this incredible, sweet, brown sugary tasting sweet cold tea. SO GOOD. Then we got the sweet and sour chicken, or as the Instagram calls it "flightless bird chunks in gluten" and for someone who can't do black pepper, these were a top of the spice level, burns a little but the flavour is so good, I'll put up with the burn, kind of burn.
Hubs got something very spicy called "pork Krapow" (I think) and he does spice quite well and it made him "emotional" 😅. I had the white curry and brisket ends thanks to a suggestion from reddit. These were spicier than the bird chunks, but when I scooped the meat and cauliflower out of the bath and put them on the rice, I was able to enjoy the creamy, coconuty sauce so much more. The brisket was the best meat that I've had at a restaurant in my entire life and I'd suffer through the heat again for it. When I say I can't do spice, spice gives me a burn like taking a shot of tequila burns.. and I'd gladly eat this meal again.
Our server, Taylor, was the sweetest human. She walked me through the menu on spice levels and what was safe and also what I shouldn't even look at because looking at it would burn. She was an incredible server and a major asset to this restaurant. I'm sure the other servers were incredible, but Taylor was fabulous!
Thank you for having us, Eem. We will see you again one day for sure!
