Passorn (Tollcross)

• Upon entering we were provided with a warm welcome
• Service is always so precise and pleasant in Thai restaurants and this was no different
• Mr and Mrs Prawn were a match made in heaven
• Whilst not clear in the menu we assumed that Mr Prawn was the one wearing the filo suit
• Both prawns were cooked to perfection
• EdinBloggette's favourite was Mr Prawn whilst I preferred Mrs Prawn
• Our second starter was beautifully presented and packed with flavour
• The little parcels of pleasure were gone in a flash
• EdinBloggette is more adventurous and opted for Pad Cha
• When ordering our mains we were asked what level of spice we would like
• EdinBloggette played safe with a Level 3 whilst I pushed the boat out and visited Level 4
• As it turns out Level 3 was pretty spicy
• The Thai Green curry was milder than the Pad Cha
• The dish was so creamy and chicken was lovely and tender
• Bite after bite I was starting to think we may have stumbled upon the best Thai to date in Edinburgh (this would require more discussion and could not be based on my curry alone)
• To accompany the two mains we ordered a steamed rice with coconut and crispy onion
• The tagline is Angelic Thai Dining
• After a brief discussion we agreed that Passorn has to be the best Thai we've had in Edinburgh to date
• Passorn is a real hidden gem in Tollcross and is ideally situated for those heading to the theatre or cinema
• The food was absolutely delicious and service was friendly and attentive
• So when I was surprised with another visit to the area recently I had high hopes
• This time it was to visit Passorn &ndash
• Aob Chey was the first of the starters to arrive and this is thai chicken satay skewers
• The beef tenderloin salad was bursting with taste
• Pla Ma Now is a seabass dish with red chilli
• The delicate fish just about held its own with the other ingredients and this dish had quite a kick
• I think this was my favourite main course
• The first of our stir fry type dishes was Pad Med Hinmapan
• The spring onion and peppers were tossed in the sauce of chilli and thai sweet basil with chicken
• My choice of red thai curry with chicken is the nicest red thai curry that I&rsquo
• I can guarantee that my mum will almost always pick a stir fry style dish with garlic and ginger in a thai restaurant and her selection this time was Gratium Prig Tai
• Pad Thai was full of nuttiness and came with chilli flakes and crushed nuts on the side
• The chicken was moist and beansprouts provided crunch for the dish
• The fruity combos were cold and refreshing
• My parents are big fans of Thai food so when I go for Thai it tends to be with them
• Visiting again soon with whoever happens to be with me in Edinburgh
• We went quite early so the atmosphere was not great but the staff were very attentive
• I ordered the spring rolls and a wok dish with coconut rice
• The spring rolls were good but a bit peppery
• My main was good but I wish I had opted for the Thai red curry as it was very tasty
• The coconut rice was a great side dish
• All their Thai salads are fantastic and be careful
• An excellent evening out for those with a real passion for fine dining and Thai cuisine
• Black rice pudding is a beautiful dessert offering
• Overall the dishes were only visually appealing
• As noodles were cold and specialty curry dish was bland
• Very authentic and the food is delicious would highly recommend
