Seems like everyone is having issues with this place. Used to be our go-to when we didn't feel like cooking. Placed a to-go order last night and when I got there, the guy behind the bar charged me again even though I paid online. Luckily we caught it and he took care of it - he was quite nice about it.

It's not like it was busy when I went in, they had 2 or 3 tables and the place was empty. I called and they said they'd have my proper order waiting on me. Here's where the problem starts. When I walked in, I made eye contact with the manager who then conveniently ducked in the back before I got to the bar.

During a visit with my financial adviser he took my to one of his favorite lunch spots, Surin of Thailand. We were shown to a table right away, but it took quite a while to take our order. (Like a lot of restaurants they are obviously short oh staff. Meanwhile we were all served a cup of tofu coconut soup which excellent. For a main dish I had the Khoa Man Gai which according to the menu is a “Marinated boneless chicken breast with a crispy tempura, and aromatic Thai style rice cooked in chicken broth and a spicy ginger garlic dipping sauce, accompanied with dressed fresh greens.” It was very good, but I think next time I will have will have what my financial adviser ordered. He had his favorite, a soup with large pieces chicken. I don’t remember the name of dish, but looked very good and he said it was excellent. A very nice expensive experience; I will...
