Spice and Rice

When I phoned to book a table, the woman on the other end didn’t understand English well; she kept saying «Yes», so I just repeated tonight 6 o’clock and left my name. When we arrived the place was empty. We ordered the Fish Cake and Chicken Sate to for starter. The portion was very small and Tod Mun tasted just salt — it lacked any niec flavour such as Kaffir Lime leaves and chilli. Pad Kra Prao and Phad King for the main were way too salty and Phad King did not have cashew nuts as was listed on the menu. We called the waitress that the dish had no cashew nuts and she didn’t understand well, so we gave up. Young waiter and waitress turned up at 6:30 and when he cleared our table, I told him the food was very salty. He just smirked and left. The restaurant itself is new and nicely decorated but niceness stops right there. The food is just too salty to eat and the prices are high. No one came to the restaurant — we were the only two in there. The board outside boasts the Michelin chef — which Michelin are they talikng about? It’s not worth trekking to this end of Kentish Town/​Chalk Farm. Total waste of time and money. Don’t go.
