Started off with the Ginger Cooler (fiery, fizzy, sparkling, and full of ginger flavor). Very…read morerefreshing and honestly one of my favorite mocktails in the area. It's everything you didn't know you needed, in the best way ever.
*** Ginger offers benefits like reducing nausea, fighting inflammation and pain (especially menstrual cramps, arthritis), aiding digestion, boosting immunity, potentially improving heart health (cholesterol, blood sugar), and supporting brain function due to its potent antioxidants (gingerols, shogaols) and anti-inflammatory compounds, helping with colds, indigestion, and even skin health***
Moved on to the Shrimp Fresh Garden Rolls (warm shrimp, fresh Thai basil, fresh spring mix, and crispy lettuce wrapped in rice paper) served with a DELICIOUS HOMEMADE peanut sauce. Solid garden roll and paying $1 extra for hoisin and Thai chili sauce was worth it. A fresh explosion of flavor with every bite.
***Thai basil provides benefits such as rich antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial properties, supporting immune function with vitamins A, C, and K, and aiding digestion. It also contains essential minerals like magnesium, calcium, iron, and potassium, and may help support heart health, reduce stress, and ease pain***
Finished with Green Curry with Tofu!!! Brilliantly vibrant, herbaceous, creamy, and spicy dish balancing sweet, salty, and savory notes with a distinct, bright, complex flavor with a creamy coconut base and medium heat. Served with a traditional white rice cooked to perfection. Those of y'all who don't know...RICE IS AN ART IN IT'S OWN RIGHT! :)
***Thai green curry offers benefits like improved digestion, heart health, and brain function due to its rich antioxidants, anti-inflammatory herbs (lemongrass, galangal), and vitamins from vegetables, but watch out for high fat/sodium from coconut milk and paste. Key ingredients provide quercetin for heart protection, capsaicin for brain health, and digestive aids, making it a nutrient-dense meal when balanced with plenty of veggies, lean protein, and mindful of coconut cream***
The great thing about Thai cuisine is the many health benefits and it provides great lubrication on a chilly wintry day. The service was friendly and efficient! The interior was charming, cozy, and welcoming. Great find on the corner of King & S Court. Do yourself a favor and stop in for takeout or to dine in when you're in the area.
Thanks, WORLD GRILLS!
