text: I had high hopes for this restaurant It was a minute drive from Laveen as all are the Thai places in the area I ordered two of my staples Tom ka Gai soup and Green Curry and tried a new dish for me Holy Basil I got everything takeoutnnIll start with the Holy Basil It was very good A nice balance of Thai flavors and I thought it was quite similar to an Ayam Basil dish I used to get at a Malaysian place in Mt View CA My only complaint was that the chicken was big thick chunks like a fajitastyle I expect delicate tender meats at a high end Thai placennI opened my green curry and said WHERE IS THE SAUCE I am VERY upset at the lack of sauce There was so little I cannot comment on the flavor of the curry And they had different types of green beans in there chinese long beans and American green beans The larger Amercian green beans were not cooked That sucked The beef was tender enough but the peices were too big The one redeeming part of this dish was the fact that they had eggplant in it There is something about eggplant in green currynnThe Tom Ka Gai soup was fantastic My only complaint would be the chicken which again was large fajitastyle slices Does not make sense to mennWhile I was waiting at the bar for my order I remember looking into the kitchen and wondering how they could possibly prepare everything on the menu in that tiny space Now I think I know I suspect they prep all of their meats ahead of time and use the same sizeshapecuts for each dish to save time This results in a fajitastyle cut of chicken that leaves me less than thrillednnOverall the menu is brief and the food is good but I do not think it is worth a long drive I do not expect to return when I could make the same drive to get to Swadee which was just fabulous I gave this place a because the Tom Ka Gai soup and Holy Basil were VERY good I am however disappointed in the green curry the cuts of meat and by the way they completely ignored my request for Thai spicy everything was rather mild in my opinion
