Fluffy Rice — Restaurant in Brentwood

This is the second time I've ordered from here and both times I've been disappointed.

The staff are polite and helpful on the phone but the food is dissapointing and very expensive considering the taste and quality.

My first time I ordered a duck special with Pomelo. Instead of Pomelo, they used grapefruit (which is a much more sour), needless to say that was a waste of £15 on a dish.

Last Friday I ordered Pad Thai Chicken, sticky rice, Beef Pad Graphao and Tom Yum Prawn soup.

The Beef Pad Grap Hao is meant to be a stir fried dish packed with thai basil and chillies.

Instead I recieved rubbery beefy packed with fat and two thin pieces of english basil in a sweet watery curry base.

Tom Yum is meant to be very sour and chilli, this was a sweet tomato soup.

Sticky rice was not sticky and the paid thai had zero bean sprouts.

Again, over £40 wasted. I won't be going back there...

I went on Sunday to Fluffy Rice and was really impressed with the food quality I received there. My partner and I ordered a starter of dumplings to share, which came with a delicious dipping sauce and generous filling, then I ordered for mains green curry with chicken and jasmine rice, the portions were generous and very flavourful. My partner had Laab Gai (thai chicken salad) and it was delicious. Spicy and fragrant, it's about the only salad I've ever enjoyed. The staff were friendly and helpful when giving recommendations on what to chose, Will be coming again when next...

Noticed this place driving past the other day and it had only been open a few days. Decor is nice and the are a few tables to sit at, but I ordered a takeaway (they said they deliver as well). The food was very nice, although the meat portions could have been a bit more generous. I would definitely get food from here again, and would like to try sitting in. They only accepted cash at the time, but as they are newly opened I think they are still waiting for their card payment system...
