A Danger to Diners

If you enjoy playing Russian roulette with your allergies, this restaurant is the place for you. As someone with a seafood allergy, I was horrified to discover that even their so-called "vegetarian" dishes are laced with fish oil—because apparently, in this establishment, "vegetarian" is just a meaningless label slapped on by a kitchen that either doesn’t care or doesn’t know better.

1. "Fish Oil in Everything" – A Death Trap for Allergy Sufferers When I politely informed the server about my seafood allergy, they responded with the kind of blank stare usually reserved for someone who’d just asked them to explain quantum physics. After a long pause, they cheerfully declared, "Oh, but fish oil is in all our dishes, even vegetarian ones! It’s for flavour! "Excuse me? In what universe does a vegetable stir-fry or tofu curry need fish oil? This isn’t just negligence—it’s reckless endangerment. If your kitchen can’t accommodate basic dietary restrictions, you have no right to serve food to the public.

2. Service? More Like a Comedy of Errors The staff’s incompetence was only matched by their indifference. When I asked if they could modify a dish to exclude seafood, the waiter sighed like I’d asked them to reinvent Thai cuisine on the spot. "No, cannot change. Everything has fish sauce." Fantastic. So your entire menu is a minefield for allergy sufferers, and your solution is "just pick around it"? Absolutely disgraceful.

One can only speculate at the reasons behind such rigidness. Could it be that the executive chef prepares large batches of dishes, perhaps with pre-mixed sauces containing fish oil, leaving the sous chefs to merely reheat them using a microwave? This would explain the inability to customize orders and cater to basic dietary needs. And this should definitely not be the standard in an otherwise great city!

Conclusion: Hong Kong is a city with exceptional dining standards, but this place is a blatant health hazard hiding behind the guise of "authentic" Thai food. No allergy awareness, no care for customer safety, and no respect for basic culinary integrity. If you value your health, your wallet, or your taste buds, stay far, far away.
