I'd especially recommend the delicious and healthy crunchy fresh salads, soft shell crab and bun hui (spicy noodle soup), although in my experience the standard pho can be of a slightly variable quality. Another thing that can disappoint slightly is the often pretty cheerless service, however, this is still my favourite Crouch End cheap eat.

Called up Nid Ting the other night to order take-away. I asked the lady on the other line if they…read morehad a website so that I could look at their menu online, before placing the final order. She informed me that, unfortunately, they don't have a website, but that instead she knew the menu inside out and would be more more than happy to help me make a decision: I loved the idea of having a "human" or "interactive" menu and so I agreed on the deal. I was ordering dinner for a group of four, one of the woman being pregnant. This pregnant woman put in a request for beef and so I told the lady on the other line that, amongst others, I definitely needed some beef dishes...don't ever screw with a pregnant woman ;-) This is where it became interesting; I remember having eaten some lemon-grass beef dish at another Thai restaurant and so I asked her if they had something like this on the menu. In her lovely Thai accent she then went on to explain up me that while this is a possible combination, but that I'm fact in traditional Thai cuisine beef is not paired with lemon grass. If I wanted to have a nice beef dish, she'd recommend stir-fried beef with Thai basil. Or, the marinated beef salad. On the other hand, if I wanted the lemon grass, she'd suggest the Tom Yum soup. Needless to say, with such a lovely and informative interactive menu, I followed all of her suggestions. On top of that, I also ordered a red duck curry, a Pad Thai (with prawns and not beef, obviously) as well as a mixed starter and some egg fried rice and white rice. I thanked her and 15 minutes later I showed up at the restaurant to pick up my order. It was a Friday evening and every table was filled. (With it being so busy, I even more appreciated that they has taken so much time for me on the phone earlier.) The food was almost ready - thank goodness, or else the pregnant lady might have changed her desire and maybe demanded lamb instead of beef ;-) Lastly, I should mention that the food was great...and even the pregnant friend was happy as a puppy! Note: it's take-away only, no delivery.

We tried: - Pad Thai = above average and really tasty, although it only contained about four prawns (sad face) - Spring rolls = not bad, but nothing to write home about - Duck Curry = I loved this one, is had a gorgeous, slightly spicy flavour - Stir fried veggies with Oyster sauce = Not bad - Ribs marinated in honey = Oooh these were good, but the lads ate them so fast I only got to try one! All in all, it was good value, and tasty.

The staff are lovely and will remember you next time. Be sure to reserve a table on a Friday and Saturday and don't be surprised if its packed during the week either!

If you're just having drinks you have to sit along a long bench just under the window, which is not the most pleasant in the winter because it's rather cold and drafty. Like every en vogue Asian restaurant, there were a myriad of cocktail options and the drinks were reasonably priced and good... my date had a martini, and he was impressed with the way they'd put it together. Yet, besides the well-executed martini, the service was just there - nothing memorable. I'd come back here if I were on King's Road and I needed a drink, but I'd never make a destination of it.

These are the things that I definitely can recommend: marinated BBQ beef (prepared on the grill right in front of you), kim-chee squid (spicy & not too chewy), as well seafood pancake (crispy and dipped into the special sauce it tastes even better). In terms of service, they have now introduced a bell on each table that you can ring if you are in need of immediate service - maybe that was a reaction to one of the previous reviews, where the writer complained about the slow service? The only drawback is that the whole array of (free) appetizers that usually accompany Korean BBQ, are only complimentary on weekdays and not on weekends...that's really a shame and kind of stingy!
