This was a great Thai food experience, but I wasn't prepared for the different menus from Dearborn and Detroit. My husband and oldest daughter wanted to try the duck, but this wasn't an option in Detroit. I got crunchy chicken for my husband, which he thought was good. My two oldest shared the shrimp and salmon, which was a perfect size for two teen girls to share. They really enjoyed the dish. I had the panang curry ("chicken curry" or "yellow curry", tofu may have been an option as well), mildly spiced, and it was delicious! I had the papaya salad, and it was good. This was my first papaya salad, so I'll know what to expect in the future.
I didn't get any rice with my curry, which was unfortunate, but my husband and kids gave me a fair amount of their rice and all of their broccoli, so I had a nice mix of foods to enjoy the sumptuous curry sauce. And now all the leftovers are mine!
And mango rice, yes please! The 8 year old (my picky little Genevieve) didn't like it, but more for mom!
The beeper system worked well at the Detroit shipping company location.
If you are a fan of Thai food, it is definitely worth a taste, even though it's downtown Detroit. I think my tab for three entrees, the salad, and two sticky rice desserts was around $75. With the $10 for safe parking around the Detroit shipping company, it was less than we pay for pizza delivery and far less than we pay for sushi. My teens and Genevieve seem insatiably hungry for fish.
It's far from where I live, but I'd like to try the Dearborn location sometime when I'm on the west side. I will definitely get some spring rolls next time! Chicken satay skewers have always been good for the kids at other Thai restaurants, so we'll try those if they're on the Dearborn menu.
Thank you,...
Read moreFirst of all, I am a big fan of their spicy Thai noodle bowl soup. Moreover, I am a big fan of their fantastic hospitality. When I placed my order for my favorite noodle dish (by telling them how much I love and crave for it!) even though it was not on the menu on that day, the lady showed up from the back of the kitchen and told me that she would see what she can do best for me. A few minutes later, she came back to me with my beloved noodle dish! She generously fulfilled the stranger's request in less than 10 minutes! She even said no to my payment (Don't worry, She got a generous amount of tip from me as my token of appreciation). I am so thankful for the way she loves her customers. Thank you Bangkok 96. You are my go-to...
Read moreI went here with a group of three people. I will say their orders were delicious! However, mine was not… I ordered the Thai sushi roll and ate one piece of it and couldn’t stomach the rest. I didn’t expect for it to be in a tortilla and for that mayo to be in and on it.. it was kind of nauseating to me. It was so bad I could’ve returned it because I legitimately stomach to eat more than a bite and ended up wasting my money. It’s funny because another girl was around and we ended up chatting there and she warned me after the fact to only eat their bowls. Oh well! But I will say the other food was amazing! I got to get a bite of the salmon shrimp bowl and it was sooo good. And I thought the spicy crab...
