This review is for Baan Pad Thai Restaurant, Sinnamon Park QLD

verified email - 29 Dec 2015

Our family moved to Sinnamon Park at the beginning of December 2015 and tried takeaway from a Thai restaurant at Mt Ommaney but it was just awful. When my wife suggested that we try a takeaway from Baan Pad Thai I was a little hesistant but it had some great reviews.

We ordered Satay sticks, Home made fish cakes, Tom Kah, Panang Curry, Chiang Mai Curry and coconut rice. Overall, the food was delightful and definitely genuine Thai.

We started off with the Tom Kah and what a start - it was light and deliciously fragrant with the flavours of lime/lemon, coconut and galangal combining in creamy broth that was an absolute delight.

The Chiang Mai curry is my new favourite, a beautiful balanced combination of coconut cream, light chilli flavour and crispy egg noodles with a meat of your choice (in our case beef - nice and tender).

The coconut rice was delicate, light and fluffy (how do they keep the grains separated and yet tender and flavoursome?) and not too sweet.

We also enjoyed the Penang Curry which packed a chilli punch but was not overpowering.

The kids have asked that the Thai fish cakes with their combination of garlic and coriander be part of our permanent menu, they are so good.

In summary, superb Thai food from a suburban gem that gives Siam at Southbank or Tuk Tuk a run for their money. We will be back.
