I'm more familiar with Bangkok Cafe and Thai Basil over in Canton, but I tried this Cathays establishment one evening when I was over at my friend's house nearby. From the outside, it doesn't look much, and could do with a bit of a facelift, but the food itself tasted pretty authentic and was obviously cooked fresh. I heard this take away has recently come under new ownership. While under the previous owners I heard that many dishes were a bit bland and didn't pack a punch like many Thai dishes ought to, my experience of this place was very good. The food was fragrant and tasty, reasonably priced and handed over by a very friendly Thai chap. Perhaps the new owner has made his mark and turned this place around? I hope so, because it's great to be able to get decent Thai food without having to splash out every time for a restaurant meal at Thai House (which is itself, by the way, exceptionally good if you're after a lovely sit down meal).

The spectacular thing about Thai food that most people don't know is that it can melt your tongue,…read morejust kidding, but it can be extremely spicy if you order it. The dishes smell great due to the aromatic spice and most dishes can be cooked in a hot spice. Little baby fried sweet corn are delicious in a Thai food, with a good selection of vegetarian meals that are quickly cooked, this cannot be said of the meat dishes, which are cooked from fresh meat which means better taste but you will be waiting approximately 45minutes, but it's worth it. Traditional food at £6.50 a dish is fantastic as the food is out of this world. Bit disappointed on the cost of delivery though which can be from £3-5.

I once stayed in Bangkok for two months, and really fell in love with the food. I used to eat out every night at one of the street stalls or in the local market near to my hotel. I loved the fact that they could make such breathtakingly good food with a single wok mounted on a mobile stand that was essentially no bigger than a barrow. The reason why I love this place so much is because the food is authentic. And, instead of trying to be 'all things to all men' like so many of the restaurants on this strip, they stick to a more limited menu that they know how to make to perfection. It's possible to eat in or take-away. I do both pretty regularly!

They promise 'restaurant quality at take away prices' and I have to say, they're pretty good! We ordered a set vegetarian meal and I have to say I was very impressed.
