"Me and my girlfriend had plans during the weekend and we had to get a Thai. It’s simply my way to celebrate songkan (Thai New Year) Walking into Thai 1 I greeted the staff with a traditional ‘Sawadee khap’ and I expected the same treatment in return but I did not. I was very disappointed. However, we were directed to our table, we ordered or drinks and accompanied with a complimentary bowl of prawn crackers. A bowl with a mix of Thai and Chinese prawn crackers. Being in Thai restaurant and being a proud Thai myself I felt disrespected with the presentation of Chinese crackers, (Of course there’s nothing wrong with that) And I totally understand from a business perspective that most people are familiar with Chinese crackers than Thai. This is a Thai restaurant there should not be anything else but Thai. Simple. I would not expect to eat at a Chinese and being presented with something Thai. However, we waited quite a while to order our food but it was worth the wait. My wonderful Girlfriend ordered a Thai classic Pad Thai and I ordered 2 Mains because It’s Thai new year. Red curry salmon and medium rare sirloin steak with a ‘Traditional’ Thai dip. The dip looked like what I had expected, just how my Mum makes it. But it was too sweet. It was meant to be a sauce that took me back to my Mums kitchen where we are sitting with our noses running while enjoying hot and spicy thai dip. The aesthetic of the restaurant was stunning, I kinda felt like I was home. The glass wall took me back to my home in Thailand. We paid the bill and thanked for having us. Also wishing the staff a very happy Thai new year. I will definitely will be returning."
