But, in order to redeem myself, I have somewhat a fun post today. Upon embarking on a journey to satisfy my craving for Thai food, I was introduced to this place by a friend whom I declare, is also a food enthusiast. And so on a wintry Sunday night, we decided to venture to this charming little restaurant at Diversey Parkway-in close proximity to Lincoln Park.
The menu was simpleton, with home-style dishes you would commonly find at a casual Thai restaurant. Decor was decent; with an elaborate use of buddhas scattered across the dining area. While it might be over-the-top, I myself enjoy basking in the sensuous ambiance as I dig into my extremely spicy curry.
But before we get into the curry, here's the appetizer we decided to order in last minute. Despite them devils being bite-size, beware, cause they're quite filling.
Crab Rangoon (8 pieces); $5.25
These typical fried wantons are nothing out of the ordinary, but they do taste good. Cheese is a tad bit filling for my personal liking.
Now on to the good stuff. As a die-hard Malaysian, my eyes lit up in the presence of rich, creamy curry.
Front: Panang Curry (with chicken) + rice; $9.50
Back: Pad Ped Catfish + rice; $12
While I enjoyed my panang curry, I must give deserving credit to the catfish. The fillet pieces are deep fried and tossed in what seems like a spicy curry gravy. It is simply wonderful-a definite must-try!
All in all, I enjoyed the food and will definitely go back and go through the menu again. Oh, and they seem to be in great demand for takeaway.
