It is one of only two places I have had good Thai food in London, managing to actually get the balance of hot, sour and sweet, rather than just sweet (are all these Thai restaurants in London secretly working for the sugar advisory board?).<br /><br />On a more random tip, the other place I have had great Thai food is actually a Thai supermarket on Shepherds Bush Road. I recall the owners are from Bangkok, and the wife makes a load of dishes up for lunchtime takeaway. The chicken laab, as well as the red curry are both fantastic.Sharmilahttp://www.sharmilaonfood.tumblr.comnoreply@blogger.com
