The Thai

As I mentioned at the start of the year, Stephen and I have resolved to post more about restaurants as well as food we’ve cooked ourselves. Last night, we went for a quick dinner at The Thai which has been open for a couple of months near where we live (I can’t find a homepage but there’s a restaurant in Ealing too).

We first visited just after Christmas and really enjoyed the food, I chose the green curry that time which I think is always a good test. Their version was a lot sweeter than I’d had before but it was good and pretty well balanced overall, plenty of creamy sauce which is important.

Last night, we both made slightly healthier choices. I chose the Pad Prik with beef and Stephen the steamed seabass. I enjoyed mine, again it was sweeter than I’m used to but it worked well with the intense heat of the chill and there was plenty of iti. Stephen’s was also good and came with a huge amount of interestingly flavoured broth and some tasty fermented soy beans.

We were only looking for something quick (both of us being keen to get home for Masterchef and Big Chef takes on Little Chef) and were impressed by the speed of the service. Very good value too, particularly for such large portions.
