The usual Friday night, post-salsa hunger. Where to tonight? "Lets go to that Thai place next to Cindy's friend's restaurant!" (http://www.thaiprincess.com.au/)
Alright I wasn't particularly hungry thanks to my cuppa soup before leaving uni (ahh the simple pleasures of artificial flavouring in a cup), and neither was Jean, so we only ordered 2 things among the 3 of us. Pad Thai with tofu, and stir fried chicken with chilli and basil.
Fabulous Pad Thai. The tofu is still soft and moist on the inside and crispy and flavoursome on the outside, while the noodles were 'al dante' (eh, in want of a Thai version to describe the perfect noodle texture!!) and flavour not just your usual take-away sweet-tangy Pad Thai. Chilli basil chicken was also more than satisfactory - I would have soaked up all the sauce (spicy but not firey, thank heavens) with more rice if I were starving... And we enjoyed the piles of basil buried under the piles of chicken too. And, although it didn't seem like a lot of food when it first came, we were STUFFED at the end because the portions were deceivingly large! They really packed it onto the plates!
Our friendly waitress was very attentive and chatty (probably because we kept asking her how hot our dishes are) and walked us to the door - very nice! She also reminds me of a dear friend who's soft spoken, petite and very friendly, so we left the restaurant with that "we'll be back" mentality! And they didn't mark the Entertainment card so we get to use the discount again! YAY!
(I promise to return to La Brasserie, which is right next door, I promise... some day....)
