U and I Thai
I was really surprised when I stepped into U and I Thai. The ambiance was unlike any other Thai restaurant I've been to. It seemed more like a trendy Western style cafe.
Beef panang ($13.95) was the first dish to arrive. The meat wasn't tender enough in my opinion, but the sauce was delicious! I loved mixing it in with the rice.
The red curry duck with lychee ($15.95) is one of the most popular dishes here, and for good reason too. The duck meat was very tender and the curry was creamy and flavourful. I had expected red curry to be super spicy, but it was not bad at all. The only problem was that the lychee wasn't very prominent.
The authentic pad thai ($12.95) was good, but nothing out of the ordinary. I probably wouldn't order this again since the curry duck was much more special.
I really liked the ambiance here and the service was quite good. Water was refilled promptly, though the food took a while to come. I think this would be a good place for a date or a casual gathering.

Hmmm I might try the take out there one day.
ReplyDeleteI see it quite often, but it looks too modern to have decent thai food.
Goes to show, can't judge food by the restaurant cover.
@pyaria: Hmmm I also think the place looks a bit too trendy for an authentic Thai restaurant. Food is not bad though! But it seems to be more of a dine in place than a take out place since the decor is so fancy.
