Un trésor de resto dans Hochelaga, là ou l'offre en cuisine asiatique est limité. Le rapport qualité prix est imbattable! La salade de mangue mérite une note parfaite. Accueil & ambiance sympathique, bonne musique!

Came at the recommendation of a friend & it did not disappoint!! I'm a vegetarian so I was glad to see there were plenty of veggie options for me. I ordered the veggie Pad Thai & mango salad & they were delicious!! Very flavorful & generous amount. My friends all enjoyed their orders as well. I have no complaints honestly. I will definitely come back to try their other items!

Quelle belle expérience, wow! J'ai commandé pour emporter deux plats principaux & toutes les entrées sur le menu. La salade de mangues est fabuleuse. Les raviolis m'ont vraiment surpris par les saveurs de citronnelle. J'ai littéralement bu la sauce du poulet satay & celle du curry au poulet. J'ai hâte d'essayer les autres plats au menu. C'est épicé à souhait, j'ai adoré.

Le poulet croustillant, la soupe tom yam & la salade de mangue (entrée) mettent du bonheur dans mon coeur. (Je déconseille de prendre les 3 en même temps, les portions sont généreuses :)

Délicieux 😍 Tout est très savoureux! Portions généreuses, & j'aime qu'il y ait des légumes dans la plupart des plats. Mes coups de coeur à date : Khao Soy (nouilles au cari), Pad Seew & salade de mangue. Hâte de goûter à d'autres plats!

What a great, tasty, authentic, warm & cozy meal! The mango salad was a fun surprise. The Kuai soup has great depth of flavour, acidity & sweetness with citronella aromas. Service was friendly & fast. Whether you come for a quick take out or to sit down, it is worth your time & money. Speaking of money: it's all super fairly priced. Portions are large & you don't have to beg for hot sauces: they are all laid out at the counter, personalize the spice to your taste level.

Quelle belle découverte! Le khao soy est meilleur qu'à Chiang Mai, le krapow est digne de Phang nga, la salade de mangue est comme une salade de papaye 2.0 d'un night market. Un joyau qui en vaut le détour. Go!
