Maybe the meat dishes are a lot better but for the price we paid and when looking at the reviews, I’m wondering if the place has just completely changed and quality...

I had the masaman with chicken and it didn't taste at all like the original one I had plenty of times in Thailand. The chicken was also dry. On top of that, me and my partner both had stomach cramps afterwards. To end on a positive note, the service was very...
