"This is one of those local places that serve amazing, and first and foremost real spicy Thai food. The girl serving food always appears a bit lost in space, but the green papaya salad and the tom kha gai and the fried glass noodle...are worth it. The decor is beautifully done, very authentic for a neighbourhood Thai. This restaurant is always busy, so make sure you book a table!"

It was spicy for Germans, maybe a bit more than they\'re used to. Anyhow, I enjoyed my meal. Nice, old-fashioned room, with space between tables. I got there early and w...

The food is normal, the quality is good, the amount better, but the furniture is old fashioned. The place was rather empty and I wouldn\'t have entered, if my hotel receptionist had not mentioned this restaurant. (Although she also mentioned an all-you-can-eat restaurant nearby..
