Little did I know it was celadon thai, and I have tried their food at the latham location. This was one of the fastest service I have had, I just got done ordering and I had food on the table!!

The Clifton Park location is possibly a little bit closer to home than Latham, but every time we drive by the Clifton Park restaurant my wife will comment on how it doesn't look busy or inviting. The "inviting" concern is because it always looks so bright inside no matter the time of day. We'd also comment that it might be better for a lunch than for dinner. I guess she had a craving for Thai on a Saturday evening because she suggested trying out the Clifton Park location and it was already after 5pm. As per usual, it was brightly lit inside and there were only two other tables with customers. There was also a Mealeo driver waiting to pick up a delivery order. We were politely seated and provided with menus and glasses of water. Right away, I noticed that my wife's menu looked different from mine. Hers had white stickers covering several items. We checked with the waitress, and she confirmed our suspicion that the covered items were no longer available. She asked if I would like a different menu since nothing was covered on mine. Rather than being tempted to order something that I would later learn was not available, I agreed to having an updated menu. Initially, I thought I had received another outdated menu, but the waitress pointed out their attempt to use a magic marker on the plastic coated menu was not successful; you could still see all of the items on the menu. With all the awkward stuff out of the way, I ordered a Thai Iced Tea ($5) while we studied the menus. Maybe because I hadn't had one in a long time, it tasted extra good. Great flavor, and it was not too sweet. The Curry Puff ($9.95) appetizer caught the attention of us both, so we ordered the vegetarian version with potatoes, onions, peas, carrots, and curry powder inside a house made pastry with sweet and sour sauce and cucumber sauce on the side. They looked like little empanadas and tasted delicious, especially with some of the tamarind sauce. Unfortunately, our Curry entrées were brought to the table about a minute after the Curry Puffs. Fortunately, we were able to quickly devour the three puffs before our entrées had a chance to cool. My wife's Green Curry with tofu ($16.95) was served mild, as requested, and was quite delicious. There was just enough spice to recognize that some of it was in there. I ordered the Kabocha Pumpkin Curry with a combination of shrimp, beef, and chicken ($19.95) with medium spicing. The blend of flavors was outstanding. The shrimp were perfectly cooked, and both the beef and chicken were tender. The spicing let you know right away that it was there, but it was not overpowering. It began to fade just as you were ready for your next spoonful. Both of our curries were served with heart-shaped molds of white rice. Had we noticed that the menu also offered brown rice we would have chosen that instead of the white rice. Apparently, they do a good takeout business. During the time we were there we observed an almost constant stream of customers or delivery drivers picking up packages to go. I'm certain we will return for more good food and friendly service.

There are a lot of options here, including a BYO bowl option, which seemed intimidating so my dining partner and I opted for a predetermined menu item. You can choose from salads, rice bowls, broth bowls and plates. I went with the Tuna Poke Fire Warm Rice Bowl (say that 5 times fast) - it had a scoop of rice, sprouts, pickled jalapenos, cabbage and a very small scoop of tuna, It was then given a small squirt of miso dressing. Now looking at the menu again, I realize they did not put the fire sauce on, dang. I also got a small cup of coconut curry chicken soup and a fountain drink, since they have a lot of different options of teas and lemonades, I wanted to try a couple. My total was $18 and I just found that pricey for the size and portion of protein given. I had the soup first and I found it to be a small serving, thin and kinda bland, it also had no sustenance to it, it was mostly just a broth. You could skip this. I thought my bowl was pretty good, but I was wishing for more kick and more tuna. I wouldn't get the poke here again, I'll save that for a local Poke bar! The drink options were pretty great but I think they are just drink mixes. Don't miss the cayenne berry lemonade and the fig and vanilla tea. My friend wasn't thrilled about her salad, she had the Sriracha Ginger Tofu salad. She found it too spicy for her tastes (but she doesn't like much heat) and it just didn't have enough *stuff* in it. It was really just like, kale and tofu. I definitely preferred this spot to another one that is supposed to 'be good'. The options are pretty endless, the flavors are decent and you can get a really healthy meal option, just expect to pay for it and don't come too hungry.

The steak sandwich and sweet potato fries were delicious . The bread had a light crunch and the au jus well flavored. Our server was very polite but the dinner lasted over 2 hours. The pause between greeting, ordering drinks, then ordering food was substantial. The wait to obtain the bill at the conclusion of dinner was a bit too long too. I would give Lanis another try on a weekend when we have more time to dine.
