The vegetables were kailan, carrot, onion & cabbage. It was sweet from the kecap manis. There were two clumps of rice that were not properly stirred though & were quite white. Summer sunset had pork that was crispy & moist enough. The sauce was sweet & sour sauce which was pretty sweet & got closing. Coconut panda was served fancy, in a coconut. The texture was a bit thin. I was not used to banana & coconut together but it was alright. The interior was lightly scoured & coconut bits left in the drink for texture.

Hip vibe, fast counter service and delicious Asian food make this a hit and safe bet for anyone…read morewanting a quick tasty meal. The decor is fun, the music was great. We had two of the sushi rolls - a tuna avocado and a crumbed prawn. Both were a tad too cold to really taste any flavors other than the nori and soy dipping sauce. We also order the steamed buns after our meal since we shared the pork ribs and the buns were okay - the filling was a non-descript meat - was it beef or pork? It had some chunky yellow onion pieces and was not terrible, it really did not have enough flavor. It lacked salt, scallions or chives or garlic and definitely was missing ginger. So that was the low point of the meal. We started with chicken satay which was fried (second time in the three weeks that we have seen that!) and it was almost crunchy, nicely seasoned and had a very tasty peanut sauce that was not too sweet. Our main was pork rinds with sweet sauce and it did not disappoint. The ribs were tender and well seasoned, fried again for service which gave them an interesting light crispiness. The sauce was delicious and we are all of it with rice. We saw some stir fried flat noodle and rice bowls going by and they looked great. Works highly recommend this place to anyone that enjoys Asian food.

Never had such succulent, tender lamb without the overpowering smell.

Would recommend to share different dishes, probably all of them is a pleasant surprise of their own! Cheers!

In Colac for a holiday and needed something for dinner. The kids refused to contemplate a pub…read moredinner so we ended up at the local Thai. I have to say that we had exactly zero expectations walking in. We have had some truly awful Thai meals in country towns before and we're expecting another. The kids though had decided that Thai was the only thing acceptable to them so against our better judgement we walked in. To our surprise it was actually good. It certainly wasn't the best Thai we have ever eaten but we have eaten far, far worse in Sydney. Everything was pretty good. We had a mix of stuff from salads to curry's and it was all tasty. Even the bottle of wine we ordered off their menu was good. The only gripe would be that when our teenage son decided that he was still hungry after demolishing 90% of what we had ordered, it took them about 20 minutes to make the chilli fried rice we had to order to satiate his enormous appetite. They didn't look too busy so not sure what the hold up was. If you find yourself in Colac and need somewhere to eat, Lemongrass Thai isn't a bad choice.

We didn't buy any seeds and had enough fun just watching other people playing with the birds. I had read that Grey River Road is a good place for wild koala sightings so we got back into our car and headed up the road. The car behind us was in a rush and we decided to let it pass. That car drove up the hill so fast that it ran over one of the beautiful birds that had been sitting on someone's shoulder just a few minutes before. All of the bystanders and us were in shock! The car didn't stop at all and kept driving up the road. After recovering the traumatic death of the bird, we pulled over to the side of the road and watched a coupe of koalas climb trees. They are such natural climbers!
