  Thai food is a favourite of ours and we had noticed this restaurant in our travels and decided to give it a try. A small, inviting, frontage but, as you walk through that front door, it is like a TARDIS from Dr Who. Not many people eating as we arrived but this soon changed as the restaurant is so busy a little later. Really lovely, authentic, Thai décor with plenty of seating. Shown to our table a young man who took our orders for drinks. After a short while an older Thai man asked about my unusual request (it happens everywhere) saying 'vodka on ice, no mixer?' Now came my chance of repeating my Thai from many holidays. Actually, it went down well as they became even more friendly. I will now say if you want a quick meal, forget it. We loved the fact that we weren't rushed in any way but, to some, they would class this as slow service. To us it was perfect having a break between courses and it also proves that food is freshly cooked.
  Now to the delicious food. My partner had as a starter the fish cakes. They looked, and she says tasted, delicious. My Tom Kha Gai, a wonderful chicken and coconut milk soup. So much chicken that with a bowl of rice could be a meal in itself. This was followed by spicy scallops. Melted in the mouth with fantastic flavours. My Weeping Tiger, which varied from area to area in Thailand, was wonderful with a bowl of secret chilli sauce. That sauce was beautifully hot and only needed a little on each piece of beef. We shared a bowl of coconut rice. Followed by cooling ice cream and, of course, delicious coffee.
  We loved the restaurant and will be back. The three people serving were so friendly and the service was perfect for us. Sorry we didn't get to see the people in the kitchen as they need a real big thank you for producing wonderful food.
