Thai night Part Two. I had to go for a sure thing tonight as Part One on Tuesday at another Thai place in Kits was a bomb. We have been going to Taste of Thai for years (used to be Wimaan). It's literally a mom and pop restaurant. Husband runs front of house and the wife is in the kitchen as the "head chef". The kids are helping with dishes and waiting tables.
The food here always brings me back to Thailand. The authenticity of Thai flavours...salty, sour, spicy, sweet ...were evident in every dish we had tonight. Their pride is shown in the presentation of the food and they don't water it down for Canadians. Prices average $1 more than the Tuesday night bomb, but definitely worth it. Portions are not huge, but we (two people) were stuffed with two appys and two mains.
Service here is awesome. Sam, the owner, treats us very well. He really tries to get to know all his regulars. He remembers that we like extra spicy and deep fried banana with ice cream, yum yum. Unfortunately, we were too stuffed for dessert tonight as the food was too yummy to stop eating.
One thing that I must say, the chili sauce that they provide on the side is to die for. They should really think of bottling and selling it. It is just that good.
Ordered the prawn pad Thai, was pretty decent (didn't use ketchup which is always a plus). A tad pricey for the portion though. I would order spicier than you normally do - I got spicy and that wasn't enough
Really enjoyed the yellow curry from here. It was creamy and had a deep flavour. The pad thai and spring rolls were also good. Would try this place again if I'm back in the neighbourhood.
