Red SpoonWe were going to Maccas - but I walked past this new Thai place a Castle Towers and we thought we'd give it a go.
Thai places are aways good for my decision making dilemmas as I order what I usually order - Chicken Pad Thai ($12.90). Pad Thai is alway what my partner orders, but we couldn't both order it and hence, my partner went for the next best thing (according to him) which is the chilli basil noodle with chicken ($12.90).
Both dishes came out nice and hot on big white plates. My pad thai came out nice and hot. Not too oily with side condiments of bean sprouts, lemon, chilli flakes, peanuts and amazingly - sugar. I have never had pad thai with sugar but honestly, I thought that the noodles were sweet enough without these clear sweet crystals. The chicken pieces in these noodles were cut in BIG chunks. Unfortunately, the thai people are unlike the Chinese and their chicken piece tend to be rough and untender. Atleast the noodles and tofu cubes were yummy enough to make up for it!

the food was good but the waitress was so rude and was just not friendly or accommodating and did not make us feel welcome.
I have eaten here a few times after eating at the one in Gladesville. This is THE best Thai food I have ever eaten outside Thailand! The only thing I don't like about the restaurant is the noise factor. It's impossible to have a conversation. I suggest sitting outside. The service was fabulous and the decor beautiful. Order the cinnamon duck! It's amazing.
