Somewhere In Bangkok Of Avon — Restaurant in Avon

I want to start of saying I don’t really post reviews, but couldn’t help it this time. This place was a great find. This is our second time in a week. The first time was awesome! We had the dirty edamame which was sooooo good. Then we had the spicy ramen noodle and the mixed vegetables in garlic brown sauce. We thought we must have picked the best dishes on the menu because they were so good. Came back today and HAD to get the edamame again, and tried the calamari. Super Crispy with a nice sweet and spicy sauce. The entrees we got were Crispy Lad Na and Chicken got Mad. OMG!! If every dish is this good we are going to have to try the whole menu. The owner, Tookie, is so sweet and stopped by to introduce herself and we chatted. She is SO passionate about from scratch cooking, and you can tell it in the food. As a Chef myself, all I can say is BRAVO. This is definitely a new favorite and we hope everyone in Avon / Simsbury comes to...

Takeout Review:

Somewhere in Bangkok is an authentic Thai restaurant located in Connecticut. They have locations in Avon and Southington. Thai food is typically very flavorful; they use multiple spices and fresh ingredients to bring out the salty, sour, sweet, hot and bitter flavors.

They have a vast menu with plenty of options and spice levels. They also offer boba tea drinks. It was a cold and rainy day so we decided to do takeout from there. I am usually a pad Thai or curry dish lover, it's my go-to, but decided on the chicken Pad See Ew this time around to mix it up. It's a stir fried flat rice noodle dish with broccoli, eggs, garlic, and soy sauce. The portion size was average and the flavor was robust.

Next time, I look forward to trying out their pad Thai, panang curry, sweet chili wings, and panang fried rice, to name a few. Overall, it's a great Thai restaurant offering quality ingredients and...

Wow. Just wow. Phenomenal on all accounts. While very small venue, the food and service were outstanding. I love Thai food and this is in the top two for this region for me. They offer five levels of heat... I always ask if it is U.S. levels of heat or Thai levels of heat since the U.S. version of 1-5 is very mild compared to Thai 1-5. I usually go with level 4 and did so here. It is definitely Thai levels of heat! Started with chicken dumplings and shrimp summer rolls. The dumplings were next level tender and flavourful and the summer rolls I rate at 4 out of 5 only due to the wrap being slightly chewy. Otherwise they were also excellent. My main course was the Jungle Curry with pork. Everything was perfectly cooked and prepared. This version of curry is a broth base, not creamy, and had wonderful, full flavor. The spices did not mask the flavours but instead enhanced them... again,...
