Hidden outside of the main shopping district is "The Last Straw"…read more Upon entering this place you'll realise that it is something totally different from what you have already seen (at least in Shepparton). The place is very tastefully decorated, the staff are helpful and welcoming to your need and the prices of their curries and rotis are reasonable. Not to mention the amazing coffee they make. A coffee with curry that I had cost somewhere between $16. Considering the food, their hospitality and the place. It is worth it.

Just because it's in there middle of an industrial district, this is not just a quick place for workers to get lunch. A combination coffee shop and thai restaurant, it excels at both. Firstly the coffee. These guys know their stuff, and easily have the best coffee in Shepparton. They roast their own beans and put a lot of care into it. Their rotated beans are so highly regarded that they actually sell them to a lot of the other cafes around Shepparton. Next, the food. First, don't expect a menu of a Thai restaurant. They have a menu with about five thai dishes, which constantly changes to keep it interesting. Very full of flavour and with flavours and dishes that go beyond what most people have tried and thai restaurants. Once you go you'll see want this strange out of the way place is always so popular.

Naam Pla has plunked itself next to the Theatre Royal smack bang in the centre of town and seems to be the go to chow for all kinds on a Summer eve. Hipsters and tattooed pensioners alike are smattered around the joint which offers both inside and outside seating as well as a bar to sit at whilst waiting for your takeaway. The menu offers more than just your average Thai takeaway around the corner would including whole barramundi with a green mango salad and Australian calamari offered as the staple seafood option for your dishes. It caters well to a sit down meal but I was in the mood to sit down at home. I ordered the beef Pad See Ew with its beautiful dark, sticky soy sauce and fresh greens ($19.50) and 4 mini chicken and prawn spring rolls ($10.00) which were nice but didn't really warrant the price tag. Overall, it was pretty tasty and I am happy that I've finally found some delicious Thai food close to home.

The spring rolls were full and tasty. The fish cakes were delicious and just spicy enough. The green chicken curry was again spicy enough. A bit more chicken would be a nice touch but overall very good. Delivery was a bit slower than expected, however it is difficult to find our address sometimes so it is understandable. Both the person I spoke to on the phone and the delivery person were extremely friendly without being patronising. I highly recommend!
