Roya scores again with a wonderful medley of Thai cuisine. Not a type of food I cook a lot, but as one of my favorites I wanted to give Thai cooking a try. The thing I love most is the fact that everything is so fresh and the herbs (cilantro, mint, ginger....) all culminate in a delicious side note that really compliments the fresh veges. Also, I love the kick that the Thai chili peppers, curry, red pepper flakes, etc. give to the dish without complicating the favors too much....just a nice mix of crunch, seasonings, a bit of spice, and the unexpected hint of peanuts and coconut milk to soften it all and make the mouth a happy playground of flavor explosions. Thai food seems to be one of the few foods where the flavors and textures all work so well together, yet they still maintain a great degree of autonomy and you can taste everything all at once and not be too overwhelmed....just overjoyed!!! Thanks again, Roya, for a wonderful evening! Enjoyed our new foodie friends, Robert and Samantha. Can't wait to make all these dishes myself! I see a dinner party very soon! Bon appetit!
