“ Thai lunchtime special is fab Short menu for lunchtime but all the greatest hits are there. The starters are exactly what you need, and the main course is delicious. I always find myself making appreciative noises while eating because it's just so excellent. V.good worth checking out. The evening menu gives more choice and portions are larger but same fabulousness. Or you can take them home but that seems to lose some of the presentation as it's in a box not on a plate... personal choice. ”
