It has been a while
since I last had a lunch out along Kapitolyo and it sure was refreshing to
spend lunch outside the office. F asked me if I prefer to eat at Rub Ribs or
Thai Dara and since I have not tried the latter, off we go to Thai Dara.
LUCKY! We managed to get a parking spot right in front of
Thai Dara.
The little store sandwiched beside Mad Mark’s and Poco Deli
sure has this homey feel to it. The small restaurant can accommodate perhaps a
max of 20 people. It reminded me of this little dumpling place in Binondo. (Oh
Chinatown, how I miss thee.)
Since F was not a newbie like me, I asked him which ones
were his favorites and he mentioned several spicy dishes till he mentioned the Tamarind Fish (PHP239). It sounds
promising so I gave it a shot. I also ordered a glass of Mint Lemonade (PHP55) simply because it sounds refreshing. F on the
other hand was trying to avoid carbs thus ordered a Thai salad and some pork
satay.
It took them just a few minutes to prepare our meals (well,
there was only one table occupied when we arrived) and it was a good thing
since I was famished.
