There are Thai Squares all over London (11 in fact!) that its a strange I’ve not been to a single one. Tonight we changed all that. The thing I love about Thai restaurants is that without fail the service is so friendly and accommodating. They could hardly do more to make your visit comfortable and all your needs met. Thai Square was not lacking in this aspect!
Food at Thai Square was fairly reasonbly priced. My brother and I were a tad greedy and started with a mixed plater of starters (with most things on the dish being deep fried … mmmm) …
followed by Pad Kee Mao (Spicy thick rice noodles cooked with beef, vegetable, and fresh chilli) and a curry which is very quickly becoming a favourite – Paneng Curry.
Both dishes were pretty tasty but being the sweet-tooth that I am my favourtie dish was the Paneng Curry. The Pad Kee Mao was just a little on the hot side for me. It was so spicy that I needed two glasses of Thai Iced Tea to get over it! Ha ha. It was only little concerting to see just how many spoonfuls of sugar was going into the delicious drinks.
Thai Square was alright. Despite reviews I think the prices at the restaurant are fairly average – not too pricey and serves were probably what you get at most London Thai restaurants. We were definitely very stuffed after our meal so we were more than satisfied with the portions we got (though maybe that had more to do with ordering rice AND noodle dishes!) Not the best Thai in London but not too bad.
Have to say it, and its gonna sound a bit geeky, but your food photography skills are impressive Grace!
Thanks Gary but I, unfortunately, on this instance cannot claim credit on this occasion. We took these photos with Pat’s digital SLR – my lowly instant digital cam cannot compete I’m afraid! Having said that I really love using his camera – seems to make any photo look great. Check out the pics on my next post
I see… the next post’s photos are great too. What camera/lens setup was used?
All of the photos (this one and the other entry) were taken with the Canon 50mm 1.8f prime lens. It’s a cheap lens, but effective. I think ISO was probably about 400 or 800 on the Canon Rebel XTi (Canon 400D).
