They have finally re-opened in Mystic Porte shops, next to Grayton Fitness, just North of 30A on the west side of 283 (Grayton Road) at 38 Clayton Lane.

Open Monday-Saturday 10:30AM - 8:00PM

850-231-3948 phone
850-231-4383 fax

I stopped by and met new owners/operators Sam and his wife Rose. Sam was manager of Bangkok House in Fort Walton Beach for several years. They just moved back from North Carolina for this opportunity.

They are keeping the menu simple until they build some business but said they will cook anything to order, including vegetarian.

Please show your support for their new business. And tell them you saw them on SoWal.com!

I was thinking the same thing when the owner walked next door into the gym and gave us menus. :bang: You will be proud of me sticking with my workout instead of immediately going next door to eat. I do look forward to trying the Thai Cafe!

I am fairly certain that I have a 6 pack or two tucked away in my belly but it is covered by the fat. :D At least that is what the lady at the gym said. :cool: Now I will never be able to show off my six packs (yes, plural) with the Thai Cafe going in next to the gym. You may as well put cookies out on the counter by the sign in sheet at the gym. :bang:

I ran into a few SoWallers while picking up my order.

The shrimps in a blanket (E) are excellent, much like those at the Royal Orchid. The sweet dipping sauce is similar also and standard for Thai restaurants.

The cucumber salad (S1) was tasty and exactly as you would expect.

We had the Pad Thai (2) with mixed vegetables instead of meat, carrots, cabbage, brocoli, sprouts on the side - yummy was the consensus once the plate was licked.

The chicken-fried rice (1) was also good and a slight bit plainer than standard Thai fare which bothered us not a bit.

The Pad Pak (8) was done perfectly. This is a plain dish which is exactly what I order quite often, because I don't like a heavy sauce. This just feels healthy with lots of crunchy veggies and tender chicken. With all dishes you have your choice of meat or none if you prefer. Steamed rice is included.

The curry chicken (11) was ordered red and was not red as is sometimes the case but rather a smooth coconut curry which was ordered medium hot and was barely spicy to the experienced Thai lover. It included a nice mix of vegetables. This one will be ordered often.

There were a few people waiting on their orders when we got there to pick ours up. We ordered from the beach while enjoying another ho hum magnificent late fall sunset at about 4:45. Who decided the sun shoud set at 4:45? :roll: What happens when people don't get to punch out until 5 and drive home in the dark? If Al Quaeda knew about this they would leave us alone.

Time between order and pickup was about 30 minutes as expected. They were very happy to see us and all smiles.

If you have never been there it is a small place with only a couple of tables and a counter with a few spaces. It's mostly for pickup.

I just had lunch there, and it was great. I am a vegetarian, and ordered the fried rice with shrimp. It was very tasty, and a huge serving. The cucumber salad is awsome. Very friendly folks running the place. It is a very small place to eat at, take out would be better.

Just had the red curry for lunch - takeout - very good and large enough to have leftovers for tomorrow.

I shouldn't have read this before dinner. Now I don't want the spaghetti that I'm making. :bang: The prices look so low for your area. They actually look low for our area! I'm happy for you locals.:clap_1: We have many Thai/Chinese choices around here.

I hope I don't gross anyone out- but I am eating my Thai leftovers for breakfast. :biggrin: The Pad Pak mixed with chicken fried rice, with the yummy Pepper Steak broth poured over it.

We loved our meal. It will be hard not to do a repeat tonight!
