This is creative gourmet Thai food so that even the normal sounding dishes are extra delicious with fresh ingredients and marvelous taste combinations. Venus, our server, was really helpful since one of our party (me!) doesn't tolerate spicy food very well. That said, if you like spicy food you will be very happy!
