A Taste of Thailand - Lunch in Zurich

Uncle Max · #2 10.02.2012, 14:27

They have trashy neon signs and lots of orchids. I'm in.

BokerTov · #3 13.02.2012, 13:26

The place is awesome - kitschy enough, friendly enough, and the food is yummy!

I have been trying to come join you again, and this Friday is finally it!

Uncle Max · #5 14.02.2012, 12:46

Nom Nom Nom: just looking at it makes my legs tingle

There are plenty of non spicy options as far as I know, and whenever I asked they were pretty helpful (and truthful, as in "not spicy" = "NOT SPICY", not = "I don't think it's spicy at all, but for you spice-wuss, it's probably very spicy!").

Cheers!

That's not the food; it's the company you keep

venice · #9 14.02.2012, 13:54

ok, this time I'll try to be on time when orders are taken and study the menu instead of just saying: I'll have what federica had

but you know, I think I'll stick to the HOT company, I've gotten used to it

Papa Goose · #10 15.02.2012, 22:08

Might make this, but won't know until the day... is that a problem Federica?

prof. taratonga · #11 15.02.2012, 23:10

Have to be there a bit earlier as I have meetings in the afternoon (and the Comedy Night later). As far as I can see the most common language will be Italian.

BokerTov · #12 16.02.2012, 06:14

Wow, what an awesome response! I know the place is small, but they should be able to accommodate us all. I will ask today if we can make a reservation, and if so I will make it for 12 people- if we have one or two extra people, I honestly, I don't think it should be a problem. Prof and PapaGoose: hope to see you there!

BokerTov · #13 16.02.2012, 12:25

Update: I booked a table for 12 at 12, plus/minus a couple of people (my maybes above) and I told them that some of us might get there a few minutes earlier, and they are cool with that.

While there, I picked up some rice dish with veggies, chicken and prawns (don't ask me the name though) which was amazingly tasty, and not spicy at all

See you there!

Could one more squeeze in or all full up?

Stew

I'll risk it, thanks!

BokerTov · #17 17.02.2012, 13:55

Thank you so much to all who made it - and again my apologies for being a bit late (work!). I am very glad that, from the impression I got, people seemed to really like the food. Yay!

Uncle we missed you, but great to meet so many new people - and of course see the regulars

Until the next one!

Papa Goose · #18 17.02.2012, 14:08

Frederica that was a great spot, thanks for organising! The food was great and as always it was nice to put faces to names

venice · #19 17.02.2012, 14:33

thanks federica!
great place, my tofu pad thai was simply delicious and very mild.

lovely company, gentlemen!

There is a place in Wiedikon Called Lemon Grass. It`s one minute walk from Mannesaplatz. According to a half Tha friend it`s the best she had in Zurich so far! We like it cause it feels more like a homemade meal and Mamma sort of service and good prices! Try it out!
