Touch of Asia — Restaurant in Hobart

After walking by the restaurant several times, I finally got in and tried it last week. I ordered two dishes, one was a Thai Fried rice with three shrimp in it, the other one is a stir-fried noodle, the last one on the menu. The Fried rice has no Thai taste, but it tasted good, but the shrimp had a very strange taste, a very special taste, I can't tell, very strange, like soaked in some chemical things. For the other one, cause I don't like curry and I saw that there was another dish on the menu for the same price, which was spicy. So I asked whether it's okay to use spicy instead of curry. She hesitated for a moment and said it might not be delicious. I said because I can't accept the taste of curry, spicy is ok, but I still preferred the ingredients in this one . She thought about it and said, we can try it but you'll have to pay an extra dollar. I didn't quite understand why I had to pay more, so I asked whether can explain the reason for the extra charge, I think it's unreasonable, the female boss didn't explain why but replied that everyone else thought it was reasonable. I was so shocked by she said and the way she said it, I didn't know what to say, cause my friend was waiting I felt like to end this embarrassing conversation so I didn't continue it, I said you can add it, but I was very dissatisfied with this attitude and the unreasonable charge. Just because you say thank you when you serve your food doesn't mean you are friendly. The way you act already shows the image of the restaurant. Maybe you don't care if you have one more guest or one less guest. But for me, the experience was really bad. Or maybe you're just in a bad mood, but as a result, I have to endure that bad experience. it's really awful. We will never...

We found this place after parking at Coles. We've never eaten here and was very surprised to find that even for late lunch, it was still open. So we were given the menu even as we saw some hot food in the food warmers. The lady at first seemed very serious. But once we finished ordering, we got into talking and she was very animated and friendly while we waited for our orders. Our son had his laksa, I had a taste and it was delightful, generous serve as well that he had to ask for a takeaway container. My husband had his fave roast duck as usual ( he orders it often in any Chinese restaurant we go to), it was very crispy and fragrant as roast duck should be! I had to ask him to share more to me, that's how nice it was, not very fond of duck but that was really good, no nasty smell compared to some I've tasted in a few Asian diners we've been to. My pork chops in bbq sauce were great too, I got very excited having them I forgot to take a photo! We will...

My wife and son and I had lunch at this place. The food and price were average but the service was terrible. My 5 year old son didn't want to eat Asian so I bought him a pie from across the road. We were eating our meal when the owner pointed out her sign saying no outside food was allowed. She was quite loud and aggressive about it and kept repeating that I shouldn't try to pressure her. My son asked me what was going on and was looking worried. It was all very unnecessary and made what would have been an unremarkable meal into something unpleasant. I would never eat here again and wouldn't recommend...
