Wow amazing Thai food - and cheap!! The penang curry with pork and green curry with chicken were both amazingly delicious, as was the sticky rice with mango.

I loved the sea food Thai fried rice (names are different in Thai language, however I would recommend you try them). The portion quantity is perfect and it is not less or more. Food was served quick and the staff are super fast. They are too busy to even give you an eye contact which is understandable as the crowd as large.
