this restaurant occupies a prime location just off trafalgar square across from canada house . walk - in visit on the 3rd of june 2018 . this the worst thai restaurant that i and wife have visited worldwide . food and service were appalling and the staff were lacking in . . .
trafalgar square is home to art galleries , museums , historic buildings and of course the mermaid fountain . it makes perfect sense to visit restaurants near trafalgar square for a spot of lunch or dinner and recharge your energy . so why not visit one of the best restaurants in london , regularly frequented by politicians , stars , locals and tourists alike .
came in for dinner and the pad thai was amazing - such good flavours . the cocktails are also quite good too
a group of us dined here and it was the best meal i ' ve had at any thai square restaurant . made a telephone reservation as it was friday night . was very busy when we showed up but service was good . there were four of us . the guys went . . .
blaxland thai restaurant started in 1997 as a family business in the town of blue mountains . later in july 2006 , the first thai square restaurant was founded in redfern . and in january 2007 the 2nd restaurant opened in hazelbrook , back in the home region of the blue mountains . it was then expanded throughout the blue mountains from katoomba through to blaxland as well as western sydney in the suburb of mulgoa and erskine park .
this is a solid thai place ! the food is authentic and the prices are fair . to note , their thai iced tea is $ 2 . 95 and their floating market noodle soup is $ 10 . 95 with your choice of either thin , vermicelli or my personal fave , thick noodles . they recently updated their decor to accommodate more patrons and reflect thai culture .

this is one of the best thai restaurant in town with new decor is a plus . love the new decor . food here is always amazing , real authentic thai food . i always order one of noodle soup dish yen - ta - four authentic thai - style noodle soup with seafood , crispy wonton skin , and special homemade red sauce . recommended , here they make it so good with seafood . hard to find form any other thai restaurant . somethings different form ka - prow - kai and floating noodle . and thai coffee for drink . delicious . parking . i parked over mrs chen ' s kitchen the chinese restaurant near by , 1min walk , very convenience . warning donot park at westmont shopping center . over all 5star +
this is one of the few authentic thai restaurant . in the neighborhood . portions are good size and can be share between 3 - 4 people . my favorite dishes are the crispy duck , beef pad see yeuw and garlic tofu . dont forget to get the thai ice tea . parking can be challenging : (
we pride ourselves in sharing the best of thai cuisine with our guests . our award winning restaurant is stylish and relaxed with an emphasis on flavour , presentation and service .
our trafalgar square branch is located right in the heart of central london , a stone’s throw away from the historic nelson’s column and the four lions statues . this iconic location is perfect for our flagship branch which has hosted numerous high profile events and won many awards .
superb thai food in an unpretentious atmosphere . your not going to find millennials ubering for the trendy atmosphere - another great reason to go . the whole fish and laarb alone are worth the trip .
for the last 20 plus years , this has been our go to legit thai place . even having moved away , we will drive the distance when craving thai . sad to hear it changed owners last november ( but happy for the owner who retired ) , yet we still ventured out . although the waitresses assured me the kitchen staff and recipes
stayed the same
, you can taste that hint of
je ne sais quoi
that is missing . the meal was still good , just not the thai square i ' ve been accustomed to all these years . however , the crispy basil squid is still a must order . the floating market noodle soup i used to always order was on the bland side today and the crab meat fried rice , although good , was missing the char from the wok that made it what we love . the steak salad was flavorful and a healthy portion .
first time visit after a huge renovation . love the decor of the restaurant made me feel like i were at hometown again . love in the fact that they have thai menu for thai people to chose from . we had ordered a couple of dishes that was difficult to find at any other places . all dishes were tasty and delicious . service was incredible , warm welcome and very attentive staffs . will definitely recommend and come back to try something else .
the food taste are really not my favorite and the service is rude . i did not feel comfortable in this place . my favorite one in this area is thai curry , the taste is the best and they have friendly staffs as well .
the search for the perfect thai place in nova continues but this is pretty solid option close to home . i ' ve been here a handful of times and have ordered the pad see ew with tofu . i ' ve had some inconsistencies with the noodles . some days are fluffier while others are flatter and more broken . arlington is really deprived of a 5 star thai spot but this one does the trick when it is on point . i ' ll definitely be back but expect some inconsistencies .
updated review . my last visit was awesome and i can ' t wait to try more of the menu . we ordered : pad thai chicken yum pla dook foo honey crispy basil duck the pad thai was standard , not amazing or anything but a good sized portion . would get again but will try the other noodle dishes first . the crispy catfish salad was amazing . i want an entire one for myself . fresh , light , very crispy catfish adds just a hint of funk . the salad is composed of iceberg and traditional papaya / mango salad ingredients . crispy duck is so good . fried perfectly , great crispy basil , touch of sweetness from the honey . served with rice . takeout is quick and easy . parking is difficult .
you can expect the highest standard of both food and service from our flagship venue , experience for yourself first hand why we are a multiple award winning thai restaurant group . our chefs are constantly adding innovative and authentic mouth - watering dishes to our vast menu selections . we also offer two and three course sumptuous pre - theatre set menus for you to start your theatre night out . remember to check them out in our special offer section . it is guaranteed one of the best london restaurants deals .
came here for to celebrate my mom ' s birthday so we ordered dishes to share between a party of 5 . out of everything here , the most memorable dish was the fried squid . it was so good ! i ' m usually not a fan of squid but the way they prepared it here made it so addictive . it ' s battered , deep fried , and then tossed in a sweet and salty sauce . i kept eating it like candy . this is the only thai restaurant i ' ve been to with this dish so i will definitely be back for it . the pad thai was good , but a tad too sweet for me . if it was a tad more sour , i think it would be great ! the crispy flounder was amazingly cooked . you know it ' s cooked right when the outer fins and bones are super crispy and edible . we asked for the sauce on the side so that it doesn ' t make the fish soggy . overall , we had a great time here . service was good . restaurant is a bit tight and gets crowded fast so i suggest to call and reserve for dinner !
this was the last of the three thai places that are less than a mile from my bfs . we had to try all three so we know where the best place to go would be . this one is a little smaller than bangkok but bigger than thai curry . theres only street parking so be careful . theres signs everywhere in the restaurant that says youll be towed in you park in the boston market shopping center and upon arrival they ask you where ' d you park to make sure you dont get towed . how nice of them . the decor is minimal here but the place is clean and staff is friendly . i ' m glad we got seated near the window because i loved the natural sunlight . we ordered the crispy spring rolls , pad see ew , and chicken red curry . they spring rolls were plump and very crispy hence the name . be careful though because they come up piping hot . the pad see ew wasn ' t as sweet as other places but i enjoyed the charred taste to the noodles . the red curry was great too . it had the right amount of heat and i enjoyed the bamboo shoots in it . * crispy spring rolls * pad see ew * red curry
stop by on easter , very busy but luckily we got a table with no reservation . this time we tried something different , keaw jub , moo yang , kai yang , pla dook foo , som tum ( both thai and poo krapi ) , flounder with seafood and tamarine sauce . food was quick and delicious . kids enjoyed the sticky rice with moo yang and kai yang . whole flounder was very crispy ( no oily ) served with steam rice and sauce on the side . staffs were very nice to check on us at all time . we really enjoyed the food and had a great time today .
the food here is awesome . please note : read signs very carefully before parking ! if you park in the wrong spot , your car will get towed . within minutes your car will be gone . it ' s $ 160 to get your car back , ask me how i know that . with the towing experience aside , our lunch here was great . our server was friendly , attentive , and quick . there were only 2 servers during the time we visited , and they really held down fort . both worked so well together and super attentive . the dinning space is on the smaller side . if you want to roll in here with a larger group of people , i highly recommend making reservations . our food came out in a timely manner and we thoroughly enjoyed every dish . i can ' t say we liked one dish more than the other . they were all hits , seasoned well , good portions , and made with quality ingredients . only thing i should have asked for is less ice in my thai iced tea . the drink was mostly ice ! i ' ve worked as a server at a thai restaurant before and our boss always told us to fill the cups with mostly ice , i really hated that . other than that minor thing , our meal was amazing . our server was so sweet and compassionate . she heard us calling for a cab and the towing company . she gave us a free dessert , what a sweetheart and i am so grateful ! overall , the food here is memorable and we will be back . this time we will make sure we read the signs around us a billion times before leaving our car : p

we were recommended this restaurant by friends so it must be great in occasion , but we were really disappointed in our visit . we ordered the mixed platter for starters which was ok . the chicken satay was nice but the prawn n chicken toast , prawn dumpling . . .
we called in for dinner in hope of a quick meal before the theatre . the staff were very obliging and the food was quick and very tasty . we wish we had more time to sit back and really enjoy it more . very happy ! !
nice settings , good full bar . they offer a la carte menu as well as lunch boxes what gives you an opportunity to try some variety at reasonable price and quantity . very busy at regular lunch hours .
had attended an event nearby and popped in around 9pm for a late meal . friendly and helpful staff . limited wine choices , full bar available however . good range of food choices . we usually just order steamed rice , but recommended by friends to try the coconut rice , . . .
i just read some of the other reviews , and like many other customers , we found the service totally dismal ! we arrived very early after an afternoon play to an almost empty restaurant . as we entered we saw the waitresses on the second floor talking amongst . . .
we came in fairly late and rushed - having been undecided on where to eat , spotting this place and upon entering being quite entranced with the decor from entry hall to restaurant . service and waiting time were both bad , but little did we care as . . .
service was slow and unfriendly . plate given to us hot but by time food came out they were cold . kept having to ask for our water to be refilled . food was okay , crispy duck was £16 but the duck had been blended in a food . . .

tasteless sukiyaki ( seafood in a soup ) . fishy crispy powdery catfish appetizer ( just crispy powders can ' t find where the fish was ) . pleasant nicely decorated simple neighborhood eatery . ok service ( if rude at one point :
you don ' t like the sauce ?
- - should be
did you try the sauce ?
or something more positive ) . stay away from sukiyaki ( the soup version ) . terrible . tasteless . just some seafood ( bland seafood ) in boiled water . soup had no taste . green curry was just ok . not good but not bad . nice design of tea pot ( combined with tea cup underneath ) . beautiful and smart .
this place has taken a fall and is not worth the price , drive or difficult parking . the larb was bland . the whole rockfish was dry and very small . the crispy duck had very little meat . bottom line - cutback on food portions at a high price . service was decent . the manager was very rude . better options on block away - rincone and bangkok 54 .
good food at a decent price . place is small but cozy . curry duck , crab fried rice and calamari were top notch
crispy duck basil - full of flavors , crispy and juicy . floating market noodles - very authentic and very flavorful . papaya salad - very spicy but very delicious . love this place

not quite sure why this place is getting so many rave reviews , nothing i had from here was spectacular . tried the crispy basil squid - it was good , but not for the price , and really just tasted a little bland . could ' ve used some sweet chili sauce or some heat . green curry flavor was on point , the portion was pretty small though . not much chicken in it , and chicken felt a little overcooked . pad kee mao ( drunken noodles ) were underwhelming , not much flavor , just spice . also not a huge fan when all the noodles stick together so much . the beef with it was chewy and dry . if i ' m on columbia pike i ' ll go to b54

as a full service ingredient company , adams extract serves a variety of end users in the food industry under the adams , cti , rex , neustra casa and flavor a la carte labels . from bottles of food coloring found on grocery store shelves to a container of raw spices for a multi - million dollar meat plant , adams extract continues to produce the finest of extracts and spices .
these recipes - plus lots more - can be found on the adams website at urltoken .
fred adams was honored with the texas state distinguished alumnus award by the alumni association in 1973 .
betty adams , the late wife of john c . adams , created this recipe for a cooked white icing that has topped countless red velvet cakes since she created it more than 65 years ago .
carrying on the adams legacy is something that crim and his fellow managing partners do not take lightly .
sterling crim , the managing partner and chief marketing officer for the adams extract company . the company this year began marketing the original scratch - cake recipe in a vintage - style box with cocoa , flour and bottles of extract and dye .
meanwhile , in austin , tex . , john a . adams was getting rich selling vanilla and food dyes . he and his wife , betty , ate the cake at the waldorf , said sterling crim , the managing partner and chief marketing officer for the adams extract company .
the adams extract company is pushing back against the twisted permutations of red velvet , too . the company this year began marketing the original scratch - cake recipe in a vintage - style box with cocoa , flour and bottles of extract and dye .
our cupboard contained other adams extracts ( almond , lemon , etc . ) plus the requisite four - pack of food coloring . if you grew up in texas , your kitchen cabinet probably contained a few adams extracts , too .
at first , john a . adams ' two sons sold the double - strength extract door - to - door , backed by a money - back guarantee . after wwii , the company expanded its operations , adding spices in the early 1960 ' s . in 2002 , adams extract & spice llc moved from the austin area to a new facility in gonzales ( east of san antonio ) .
he asked if adams could go back and tell his people there was no possibility of a united ireland . adams said the question was rather how he could bring his people along . he had to show them there was an alternative way forward .
i was a teenager during the 1960s living in san marcos and whenever my mother and i would go to austin i’d be on - the - lookout for the adams extract ‘glass - cube’ just off ih35 .
multiple sclerosis . taking ginkgo leaf extract or ginkgolide b , a specific chemical found in ginkgo extract , does not improve mental function or disability in people with multiple sclerosis .
“about three or four years ago , we purchased a retail spice operation , which was adams extract and spices , ” janecka continues . central texas ingredients is now the institutional sales arm of adams . through the combination of the two companies , j bar b has a full spice operation , from product development to retail and wholesale sales .
by 1917 , adams’ sons fred and don were preparing to take over the business , and in 1922 , the second generation decided to move it to austin , where fred adams had been among the first graduates of the university of texas’ business school .
let’s start this story back in michigan circa 1888 , where adams , a pharmacist , developed a vanilla extract for his wife , who didn’t like that the unfortified vanilla that was available “baked out” of cakes and cookies .
do you remember helping your mom cook ? i certainly do - especially when it was time to do some baking . my responsibility was assembling the necessary ingredients . and , always , adams best vanilla extract was my favorite .
their product line includes over 100 extracts , spices , and food colors . most grocery stores in texas and throughout the united states carry adams vanilla extract , and you can order it online at the end of the article .
even though plenty of restaurants and prepared food companies use adams products , crim says they are also in the business of promoting home cooking .
the company roots were planted when his grandfather , john a . adams , a michigan pharmacist who moved his family to beeville in 1905 , developed the vanilla extract formula because his wife wasn ' t happy with existing products . when she professed delight with the taste and performance of his flavoring , he responded with
well , that ' s old man adams ' best .
while attending what was known at the time as southwest texas normal college in 1911 , fred w . adams established texas state university’s campus newspaper .
not surprisingly , the adams company continues to be a family affair . john g . adams jr . started working when he was about 10 years old ; currently , he is vice - president and manages the spice division . daughter linda adams is a company director . there are four children in the fifth generation , and adams sr . says he won ' t be surprised if at least some of them want to join the business .
i think one of my granddaughters wants to be a lawyer . that ' s great ; we could use a lawyer in the family .
the adams family went door - to - door to build the business in an era when most consumers shopped at mom - and - pop stores , but crim says that now that 10 retailers control 80 percent of grocery sales , adams has had to evolve to compete on a bigger scale .
second , the adams best vanilla that launched a 125 - year - old company is just one of the more than 300 products that bears his name .
ever the marketer , adams developed a recipe that called for his butter extract and two bottles of his red food coloring and set up eye - catching displays in grocery stores that showed just how red you could make a cake if you made it his way .
vertigo and dizziness . taking ginkgo leaf extract by mouth seems to improve symptoms of dizziness and balance disorders .
you won’t hear them refer to anyone in the adams family without a “mr . ” and “mrs . ” first , and you can feel the reverence in their voices when they retell stories that customers have told them about their grandmothers and mothers preparing birthday cakes and wedding cakes and chocolate chip cookies with adams products .
ovarian cancer . evidence suggests that using ginkgo leaf extract is associated with a decreased risk of developing ovarian cancer .
the company got a new name — adams extract & spice llc — and moved into a 90 , 000 - square - foot facility in an industrial part of gonzales , the small town an hour east of san antonio that sits on the modern spice trail of interstate 10 .
within the last year , adams has acquired three louisiana flavoring businesses - - rex pure foods in new orleans (
the commander ' s palace uses rex products ; we ' re real proud of that
) , louisiana gourmet in natchitoches , and arisé in thibodeaux . these remain in louisiana , but are now divisions of the adams company . in addition , adams is in partnership with texas traditions , a company that makes boutique jellies , seasonings , and mustards ; the company also manufactures some private - label products , such as aaron neville ' s new orleans seasoning blend . adams says modestly ,
we ' re still growing a little bit .
adams and mcguinness were determined to carry the whole movement with them rather than repeat the history of republicans , where any move forward had been accompanied by a split .
mr . crim is something of a student of both extracts and popular culture . in the 2009 movie “extract , ” a comedy about the troubles facing an extract plant owner , jason bateman’s character is based loosely on his life .
the old adams extract building on i - 35 , which i waxed nostalgic for back in ’07 , also caught the fancy of mike judge , who attributes the building as a key inspiration for extract , his new movie . the location is still nothing but a heap of dirt , but the original neon sign now adds class to the considerably less attractive building in gonzalez , texas ( above ) . at least we still have benji’s photo of the building . and thanks to commenter sterling crim of adams extract & spice , llc , who tells us that the austin history center “has the original architectural files” and that they are “loaded with photos inside and out of the plant . ”
tony said he needed to look into adams ' eyes and hear him say that sinn féin were locked into the political process and would stick to their commitment to the mitchell principles [ of non - violence ] . adams said they were . at the end of the meeting we asked them what they would say to the waiting press when they went out on to the street . adams said jokingly they would go out and say the prime minister had promised british withdrawal and that all the prisoners would be released .
but by 2002 , john g . adams was nearing 80 years old and in worsening health . they’d reached capacity at that facility , and the adams heirs decided to sell the company to a trio of businessmen who wanted to bring the brand into the 21st century while maintaining the integrity that comes when a business survives three generations of family ownership .

altitude sickness . research on the effects of ginkgo leaf extract on altitude sickness is inconsistent . some research suggests that taking ginkgo leaf extract can reduce altitude sickness symptoms when taken 4 days before climbing . however , other research shows that using a specific ginkgo extract ( gk501 , pharmaton natural health products ) for 1 - 2 days before climbing does not prevent altitude sickness .

for tardive dyskinesia : 80 mg of a ginkgo leaf extract called egb 761 , three times daily for 12 weeks , has been used .
but one whiff of that sweet earthy vanilla and a look at the thick pharmaceutical bottle sealed with that little red cap and he’d know : even though the founding family sold the company 10 years ago and the new owners moved it from the city it called home for more than 80 years , adams extract is still very much alive and well .
tony did a brief press conference after the meeting and was asked if he had shaken adams ' hand . he had prepared his reply and said he had treated him as he would any other human being .
) . when i asked adams exactly what an extract was , he defined it as a flavor that is extracted from a botanical and suspended in alcohol .
you know , like when you twist a lemon peel , that little spray of oil that comes out contains lemon flavor . the trick is to capture that flavor , and the process depends on which botanical you ' re working with .
however , he explained that for some flavors , like strawberry , banana , and pineapple , it just hasn ' t been practical to extract natural flavor essences . for those , they ' ve created artificial flavors . adams certainly knows his chemistry of flavors ; he was the first texan admitted to the society of flavor chemists and is the only texan to have served as president and board member of the flavor and extract manufacturers of the united states .
i have cousins who have ranchland near gonzales and just this past week i was down there for thanksgiving and went by the adams extract facility ( in the gonzales industrial park ) . i had two questions for the receptionist : 1 . ) how old does my bottle of vanilla extract have to be to show them being in austin ( she said that she thought pre - 2005 ) and 2 . ) was the ‘glass - cube’ still in austin ( i was sad to hear ‘no’ ) .

spices for the food we eat . . . everyday ! whether it ' s your grandmother ' s traditional holiday stuffing recipe , or an exotic new dish , you can count on adams for quality spices at a great price .
over the next 50 years , john g . adams ran the quickly growing company out of that lundgren building , adding spices and seasonings to the product line in 1960 and laying the groundwork for what would become a national brand .
as i wrote in my diary at the time , adams seemed intelligent , subtle and impressive . he had stuck to the big issues and asked tony to look beyond the current preoccupations in the talks and draw up a strategy for the future . once the meeting was over , adams came round the end of the table to where two pillars separate off part of the room , so other members of his delegation couldn ' t hear him , and said to tony that he could of course split the movement any time we wanted him to , but that his aim was to carry them all along , and that he was at them persuading every day . tony said he wanted longer and more informal discussions with adams and mcguinness . after the meeting tony said to john and me he was pleased that adams seemed to accept he would have to live with something less than a united ireland as the outcome of the process .
back then , most people bought vanilla flavoring from pharmacies . a pharmacist himself , adams vowed to develop a better - quality vanilla than the one his wife used . she baked a cake to test his formula . according to company history , she told him ,
john , this is the best flavoring i have ever used .
he replied ,
well , that ' s old man adams best .
a vanilla flavoring for the ages was born .

selling the product door - to - door with sons , fred and don turned into a thriving business when fred graduated from the university of texas in 1922 . fred purchased the company and moved the production to austin , expanding the product line to include the introduction of the red velvet cake during the great depression and the food coloring four - pack sold today . under new ownership since 2002 , the company continues to build on the adams brands and has achieved national distribution . in gonzales , the company employs over 100 people and supports community activities . the adams extract & spice award nomination was supported by senator glenn hegar and rep . john keumpel .

regarding the company ' s move to its current location near manchaca , adams remembered ,

company founder john a . adams is credited with turning red velvet cake into the bright red concoction we know today . before the great depression , bakers gave a hint of red to the popular ( and tender crumbed ) velvet cake by adding cocoa and either buttermilk or vinegar , which caused a reaction with the anthocyanin in the cocoa to turn the cake slightly red . but by the 1930s , adams wasn’t just in the vanilla business ; he’d started selling other extracts , including an imitation butter , and food coloring , too .
