    There are a lot of Thai menu here, It are very good. Now,…read moreThey have a lunch menu, 1 ppl just £10 , for 2 a la cart menu and rice (I' m not sure about this)

    Thai Cafe is a brand new Thai restaurant/takeaway opened in KIrkintilloch …read more My friend and I were really desperate to try it out, as this is the first of it's kind out here. We were dead beat on the Friday so decided to get a takeaway. I popped into the restaurant earlier on in the week to pick up a menu and found it very clean & traditionally decorated. They offer a delivery service to Kirkintilloch for £1, Lenzie £1.50. Reasonable rates. There is a bar opposite the kitchen ( you can watch them cook your meal ) with a few stools so you can have a drink while you wait for your order. And so onto the food! Quite a large range of starters ranging from traditional prawn toast , pork dumplings and the interesting sounding crispy gyosa -a deep fried vege dumpling. Soup is also on offer. Main courses - curry's 5 dishes with chilli ratings,ranging from Thai green curry to a Panang curry to name a few. Stir fry's with similar ratings on offer, 8 to chose from .There's a choice of either chicken, beef, pork, prawns , vegetable or tofu for the curry&stir fry mains. Fried rice dishes and noodles also. Thai rice, sticky rice and coconut rice to accompany as well as the good old "French fries" Unfortunately - for the Thai Cafe we had have a few glasses or 4 of Proccecco so "the edge" had been taken off our appetite, so only had room for a main course each :( I ordered a chicken Pad Khing - stir fried ginger in yellow bean sauce, spring onion and mushroom with 1 chilli rating. My friend a Thai red curry -chicken also with 2 chilli rating - described as an "authentic red curry" bamboo shoots,courgettes,peppers,green beans, coconut milk. Coming in at £6.95 each. We chose 2 coconut rice @£2.95 each. Delivery arrived on time (30mins) not bad for a Friday night. And arrived with a "free bag of thai crackers" yum :) And so onto the food!! I opened the red curry first and found it as described, but disappointingly swimming in an extremely watery thin sauce :( Unfortunately my Pad Khing had a similarly thin sauce..the consistency of which resembled soup :( I've had these dishes before several times, both in Thailand and also UK and so were expecting sauces to be thicker, not as thick as an Indian ,but not as thin as soup :( ! I decided not to complain, that night as it was too late ,so would leave it to Monday. Problem was solved by reducing liquid to a thicker sauce which was actually very tasty :) The coconut rice was delicious. I popped into the restaurant tonight to tell them how disappointed we were. To be honest they were a bit at a loss for words. They stated that nobody had complained about food to date - they've been open for approx 3wks. I'm not in the habit of complaining, I told the manager, i was just very disappointed,as I was so looking forward to my meal. And that I felt the need to give the need to give them feedback- whether it's good or bad its always useful. I was niggled at her dismissive attitude, but just put it down to the fact she hadn't had to deal with a complaint before :( She apologised and offered me 50% off a meal in the restaurant and said they would "look into it" . I feel they are genuinely lovely people,and we should do all we can to support new local business. . Hopefully this was just a "bad night" and will put it down as a "one off" :) I look forward to trying out a three course meal in the resteraunt in the coming months :)
