We ate dinner here in January 2025.
Red curry with kumara and pineapple
Drunken noodles with beef
Chicken satay skewers
How many pieces of pineapple would you expect to have in a kumara and pineapple curry? 5? 6? If you answered zero, you are either the proprietors of Thai Country Cafe, or a psychopath. Making matters worse, we’re not 100% sure there was any kumara in it either. There was certainly a starchy vegetable, but it was either very pale kumara, or just potato. Either way, damning.
Fortunately for the proprietors of Thai Country Cafe, the drunken noodles were pretty reasonable. There was a good amount of kick, plenty of Thai basil, the beef was acceptable, and everything they said was going to be in there was present.
In retrospect, we were stupid to buy the skewers, and by we, we mean mostly Business Andy. Not only do we not need that much food, but it’s such a fraught menu item. They are so often dry like they were tonight, and the meat always comes off the skewer itself very poorly, causing you to either deepthroat the whole pointy thing, or rip it off with your hands like some kind of animal.
