Which restaurant have you been to recently?

[E.H. Ruddock]

I wonder what doug ordered last night?

it was 5 of us there so it was a pig out..i know i'll forget some things but damn that place has never been bad

khan soi
garlic black pepper wings
red curry, green curry
that spicy jack fruit curry dish is mind blowing

and so many others i'd have to look back at the menu..good night

How'd you like the khao soi?!

awesome as always, this one was with duck

Yeah that's what I had. It really is the best thing ever.

its up there..i like the new location but i sure miss the old one

[doug rr]

there was a sea bass dish that was great as well as a prawn dish...all so good

[tree_]

how much did it cost

[doug rr]

for 5 of us it was just over $400 without tip.. just one bottle of wine, a couple beers and a whiskey..not bad really..we probably had at least 10 dishes..its not an overpriced place at all

[E.H. Ruddock]

Yeah there were 3 of us last time, and with appetizers and drinks before the meals it was about 200 bucks

And it is just the best. I'll be in Vegas later this year, once dates are confirmed I'm making my reservation there

I've noticed a lot of places using cooking scissors now, even read an article about it last week and diners stealing them...anyway put me down for the spaghetti and bone marrow..enjoy

definitely not fast-food-esque. more on the gourmet burger side. they do it right, although some people think it’s overrated.
