It wasn't too long before Kati Thai opened. Another local Thai restaurant that joins the ranks of at least 4 other locations in the surrounding suburbs Kati Thai was going to work hard to stand out. Judging by how packed they are on the weekend, I'd say they are on their way to nurturing and sustaining a loyal clientele of diners and take away customers. I had dinner here a couple of weeks ago and have to admit that it wasn't anything special. There were the usual starters: spring rolls ($7.90) and fish cakes ($8.90) and the stereotypical mains: green curry ($17.90-$21.90) and Moo Yang ($18.90). I thought the prices were a little steep considering the food wasn't particularly innovative or exciting. Sadly Kati Thai gets lumped in with the rest of the surrounding Thai restaurants. It's a local and fine for takeaway. That's it.

Good, simple Thai, that seems to do a good trade in the busy Union Rd Balwyn shops…read more We call this place "car crash Thai" - only because it's made the news a few times in the past few years when someone has mistaken their 'Reverse' and 'Drive' and unfortunately ploughed through the front of the place - not because of the food! Service has always been good, and food pretty straightforward Thai, with all the usual suspects, but has never disappointed. Not the most amazing decor or ambiance, but nice and cosy and have been back quite a few times, and will no doubt be back again soon.

It is seriously good, and reason enough alone to head to this Thai restaurant in Rosanna Village. The décor is calming and stylish and the second level makes this small space appear bigger then it is. The service is charming if not a little erratic and there is a limited beverage selection so BYO. Now to the main event, the food. It is consistently delicious. Have I mentioned the roti? Please don't be dissuade by my obsession with the roti, the rest of the menu is great in itself. Thai curries mingle with spicy salads and noodles. Everything on the menu is good, no great. The dishes taste as they are made from the freshest ingredients and the flavours are simple yet complex, like all good Thai food should be. Baan Thai also delivers in the local area and the quality of the food is maintained here too. Check the website and phone your order through, it is popular so on Friday and Saturday nights make sure you leave at least an hour. Baan Thai is a consistent and welcomed addition to my families birthday dinner rotation. And did I mention the roti?

The…read morerestaurant floor may be tiny and but the attentive and genuine service makes up for the lack of space. The Thai green curry is fragrant and deliciously authentic and this (my favourite dish) mirrors the quality of the the other dishes on the menu. The takeaway counter at the back of the restaurant does a roaring trade and the revolving door of customers collecting their order provides cool relief! Tarin is only open for dinner (from 6pm) but book ahead as groups of local families, couples and coworkers know this place well! Park across the road at Warringal Shopping Centre and collect a bottle of wine from the Sir Henry Barkly Bottle-O to enjoy with your meal. Although don't be concerned if you forget, Tarin is licensed as well as BYO.

It had been a while since we were last at Tarin Thai and the service was as good as it has been…read moresince I first went there 20years ago. We ordered a prawn and a curry puff starters. The prawns were superb, the curry puffs needed the oil to have been a little hotter when they were deep fried, still tasty, just a little less puffy than I would have wanted. For the main course we had a green chicken curry and battered fried prawns with a tamarind based sauce, both we fine authentic fresh meals that had that Thai zing. Once again, tho, the prawns could have been done in hotter oil as they fell just a fraction short of being perfectly crispy. The wine list is small and modest but well priced, we had a Victorian Sauvignon Blanc for a quarter of the price we paid for similar quality local wine late last year.

Today we dropped in after a 3 month absence and were excited to come across a new establishment on the corner of High and Cramer. Phillips Dim Sum takes over the small corner shop only minutes from the world famous markets and inside Phillip is hand making some of the best dumplings this side of Shanghai. We love dumplings, so in we ventured to be greeted by Phillip who quickly turned on the powerful air conditioning to make us comfortable. We ordered pork and chive dumplings and prawn dumplings and after the first bite we new we had stumbled onto a new sensation out Preston way. They were fresh and delicious so purchased two frozen trays of prawn and prawn/scollop dumplings to take home and try for dinner. We got the wok and steamer out, followed the instructions and enjoyed a superb dumplings at home. We also tried the Custard Egg Tart and they too were delicious. I suggest you sample the dumplings in store and then grab a few trays of you're choice for an authentic dumplings meal at home. Prices are great with in store dumplings around $3.50 for 3 and take-away trays of 10 for $10. Custard Egg Tarts are $1.50, and I'm just about to have one!

We had entrees of gyoza and some eggplant thing with a super sweet syrupy sauce - both sensational. Mains were teriyaki chicken and katsudon curry with rice. The texture of the pork/katsudon batter was beautiful. We followed it up with dessert. Green tea ice cream = yum. Tempura banana = odd, not very enjoyable. The staff are attentive and polite. The journey to use their toilets is one you have to see to believe - you begin to worry about how dark it gets and if you're about to walk into their house. I have to go back to try the sushi boat!
