February 20th, 2008
My work colleagues were off for a curry. So feeling sorry for little ‘ol me, who had another thankless evening alone lined up, whilst Mavis was away (again), they invited me along. By the time the evening came around a curry wasn’t in favour so we visited Thida Thai instead.
Being sandwiched between a large Turkish restaurant (which is always empty) and a Chinese buffet, eat all that you can for nothing, then I wasn’t excepting good things, being a connoisseur of Thai food (of course). Well what a surprise! No plastic menus, no paper napkins (here we had large starched lined napkins) and a clean floor, albeit wooden. The décor was tasteful and Thai in style. The service efficient (for the most part) and the staff pleasant. The food was great, tasty and well presented. The buffet starters were a bit pricey for the quantities but you couldn’t complain about the mains. I opted for the chicken green curry, which to my surprise contained less veg than other establishments and was just how it should be with just chicken and Thai aubergines.
More atmospheric than Sangthai (Eskrick) and better food that Siam House (Goodramgate).
