I popped in this place with a buddy and really surprised by the authentic Thai food. I lived in Thailand for 2 years, including Chiang Mai and this food brought me back.
The food is bold and full of flavor/spice, just like it should be.
The Gai Yun (Chargrilled Chicken thigh) was as good, or even better, than the grilled street food that I used to get in Chiang Mai. BTW, the street food is often the best you can get in Thailand so comparing it to street food is a HUGE compliment.
Somtum Malakor (Green papaya salad) was always a favorite of mine and this had the bold sour and vinegar flavors, and spice, that I have not found elsewhere in HK.
The curry shrimp (forgot the Thai name) are huge succulent shrimp with a wonderful curry caked on then the grilled. To die for.
I have had 10 different dishes on my 4 trips there and never had one that I was not impressed by.
If you like coffee, try the alcoholic Thai Coffee shake. If you ever had the Tigers Milk in Thailand, it’s a close cousin.
Someone previously posted that it’s loud and full of hipsters. I’m no hipster ( I remember when Thailand was called Siam) and I HATE places that sound like a disco on Saturday night but I had no issue with the music volume or acoustics of the room except once. We had been seated right in front of a speaker so I asked them to turn down that one speaker, which they did promptly.
This place looks like a seedy little dive bar but the food is great. If you need to wait, they have an agreement with the place next door where you can wait at the bar until your table is ready.
One complaint: They don't offer take out. I had to order 1 extra dish, take a bite and then say "I'm full. Wrap this to go." Kind of silly as there are many times I want thier food but don't want to sit in a restaurant. I wish they would chage that rule, at least for me.
After all, this is Hong Kong and life is too short to eat bad food.
