Another Taste of Thai

We've been pinching pennies and going out to eat less, but last night, on the heels of a tiring camping trip, we splurged and treated ourselves to A Taste of Thai downtown. This time we stayed away from the spicy dishes, choosing instead to get a teriyaki chicken dish with yakisoba noodles and lots of veggies, and a massaman curry that included potatoes of all things. Both tasted fantastic; even the kids loved them.

Another plus: the darling lisping Asian lady who served us did a wonderful job! I have not had such good service in town for months. The food came quickly and she checked on us but she didn't bother us beyond that.

This one is definitely one of our favorites... if we ever stop pinching pennies.

A Taste of Thai

Atmosphere: open, low-key
Food Quality: good
Food Taste: good, if you order the temperature you like. I got medium-spicy... big mistake.
Service: Average, good.
Kid Friendliness: They don't cater to kids but they have a few high chairs. My kids would only eat the rice though. They don't have very educated palettes at 4 and 2.
Overall: Good for something unique.
Cost: $12-$15 per entree.
Favorite: Green Curry. Mild.

For those who don't know, the Thai place is in the old Moscow Hotel, just off Friendship Square. We went there last week on a rare date then went to see Mozart's Requiem, which turned out much better than the dinner, but it was my fault for adventurous ordering. I should stick with what I know and like. When I went there last time I loved it.
