My taste buds were gnawing at me for crab fried rice AND wonton soup for lunch.
Problem is, I've tried a few Thai places within a 3 mile radius for one or the other and those places weren't something I wanted to experience again as I remember all of them being sorta just above mediocre.
So, with Yelp to the rescue, I found this place. And funny enough, I actually had them bookmarked!
Strapped with time, I did an online order for pick up. So, I zoomed through and arrived about 5 minutes earlier from my requested pick up time, but my food was good and ready to go.
It was a ten minute drive back to work, and somehow my food remained hot HOT, so gotta give 'em credit for their packaging skills.
WONTON SOUP: You have the option to spice this to your own preferred level. I chose no spice because I didn't want it to alter the experience or the taste I was looking for. That said, the broth had depth and was delicious. The wontons were homemade and was packed and stuffed well. Seasoning was spot on. It truly hit the spot!
CRAB FRIED RICE: I asked for no fillers (no carrots, no peas - I know they're normally not on Thai style fried rice, but just making sure) as well as no tomatoes (because I'm just gonna end up setting them aside to be thrown away, so I didn't wanna waste it.) They complied and it made every bite of this rice so delicious. It's really a meal in itself. Perfectly seasoned and they do use real crab. (I'd know because there were teenee bits of crab shells on one of my bites. NOT A BAD THING, I'm just putting it out there as a warning.) Like the soup, it also hit the spot!
FOOD: 5.
SERVICE: 4. Very little interaction, but they followed my order down to the tee.
VALUE: 3.5. Slightly pricey but kinda worth it to satisfy a craving.
PARKING: Shared with many others. It could get busy during the lunch rush, but spots opened up often enough that it may not even be an issue.
OVERALL: 4.25.
This is one of those moments one is glad of moody hAnger pangs. I'm happy for the discovery and next time I'm n the mood for one, the other or both, I'm here.
