True Thai (Newington)

• This fairly new restaurant is gorgeous inside
• Exposed brick walls with nice Thai inspired wood carvings on the walls
• The menu is fairly large with a lot to choose from and the dinner is split into Starters
• Each dish was served with 4 dumplings that were stuffed with pork and prawn
• The soya sauce was one of the best sweetest stickiest most delicious sauces I've had in a while and a perfect accompaniment to these dumplings
• Gaeng Som which is a king prawn sour curry with mixed vegetables
• I ate the Chicken Ben Ja Pan which is chicken stir fried with satay sauce and seasonal vegetables with peanuts with Jasmine rice
• Superb dish with a great amount of vegetables with just the right amount of bite
• Their dessert menu isn't the best but to be honest there really wasn't much room
• One thing to note is that although they have a drinks menu
• We were informed on arrival that they have no drinks license so it was BYOB luckily Sainsburys in right across the road
• The welcome was typically formal and bowing but things soon settled in to attentive
• The service was excellent from the very friendly staff
