    Delicious meal. We were the only people in the restaurant and were truly catered to. The owner gave me hope in humanity as she shared her outlook on life and when we commented on how she cut the vegetables in the dishes with such incredible attention to detail she brought out a knife and a carrot and gave us lessons. The service was timely but the experience was timeless.

    They ask how spicy you want it on a scale of 1-10... I asked if that was a Minnesota 1-10... They said no a Thailand 1-10... I picked a 7...

    We have ordered out from this now one-woman operation and were very impressed by the quality of the food. Best Thai food that we have had in the Twin Cities. Tastes like Thai food I ate in Thailand. Delicious.
