My poor Bella has been feeling poorly as of late, so I went to Toronto with my bride and my youngest daughter Wu.
Tonight we dined at:
Thai Spring Roll
525 Bloor Street West
Toronto,ON
416-827-4636
After a long cold day of walking around the Annex, the warm smell of the spices coming from the kitchen were heavenly. Unfortunately, that was the only heavenly thing about this dining experience.
We sat down and ordered our appetizers of one order of spring rolls with shrimp and one order with chicken. Exactly 55 minutes later, they arrived with one of the old "Ah gee, I'm really sorry for the wait" ( Not my problem that you're understaffed). Yes, I know that sounds bitchy, but this area is teeming with Asian restaurants. Get a mitt and get in the game.
Wu ordered the sweet sour chicken, my bride ordered pad thai, and I ordered beef with basil. 22 minutes after the appetizers, these dishes arrived.
Wu's dish had a plethora of baby corn, but very little chicken. My bride's pad thai was swimming in oil and red pepper, and my beef was so tough it actually made the right side of my jaw sore.
I would have complained, but the waitress was so busy it would have been futile.
Piece of advice: Try one of the other Thai restaurants in the neighbourhood. This debacle cost me $61.73 including a minuscule tip.
