Because of said sucker-tendency when it comes to Thai food, I was close to giving 4-stars to this place but unfortunately for the restaurant, our table was served by a rather pushy waitress who seemed to be badgering us into ordering starter platters which we were not keen on. It was a large bunch of us but we wanted to order only two platters because several members of the group were vegetarians and had identified their own starters to order but the waitress kept insisting we should order three. We stuck our ground and got two platters and found them more than adequate!

The restaurant is a fair trek from the tube stop, a good way of building an appetite. Food was served in adequate portions, dare I say, even enough in an individual portion to share across two if one is too full from starters and such. Flavours were rich and spicy and prices are good. Beware though, once the starters, wine, beer, mains and desserts are done, the prices could really start adding up, so it could even be worth considering the set menu but I can't speak for that considering I haven't ordered it myself.

Good Thai food, is all I can say. Nothing to blow my mind but good enough for me to stop by again if I'm in the area.
