First off the food is easily the best Chinese food I ever had. However Chinese isn't my first…read morechoice but I was entertaining a customer (who is also a mate of many years) and he is a big fan of Chinese and the Straw Hat. Its very expensive not much change from £200.00 for two of us. Started with a fillet steak stir fry served on top of a salad Paul had ribs and spring rolls both were excellent. Mains were Red Thai Chicken Curry and Beef with Black Beans couple of Rice and a Duck Curry on the side. It really was very very good. Plenty of bottles of beer and a few large brandies afterwards. The place is on the main Harlow road and is actually a few doors down from David Beckham's house , well a few doors down from the gatehouse at the front of the drive to the Beckham's place !! My only problem with the place and hence the 4 stars is that its very much like eating in a museum. Its very hushed, people seem to talk in whispers which we ended up doing without realising. The staff are great but seem to hover and also speak in hushed tones. Its just to formal for me. However the food is worth feeling like you must put your hand up when you want to visit the loo !!!

Outside of Thailand this must be the best Thai cuisine that I have tasted. Not only the taste but…read morethe service and atmosphere as soon as you arrive. Thai greetings by genuine Thais. However, the main thing, the food. A wonderful, extensive menu at reasonable prices. Even drinks are reasonable for a restaurant. Prices that more resemble than a pub. Who is to complain? Service by very friendly staff, friendly but totally professional. A wonderful evening with a friend of my partner. We will be back. Only down, and not the fault of the restaurant, was an extremely noisy table of eight. Nobody could have a conversation until they left. There was a noticeable sigh from many tables at that point. Anyway, ladies may I say ' - kp-kun-kráp' (thank you) from the three of us.

For the 3rd course you have a whole list of dishes and you can chose up to 5. We have been back a dew times and always leave full.
