They were delighted with the food and the service. The steamed lemon Barramundi my husband I shared was beautifully flavoured and cooked to perfection. The staff are very polite and friendly and the prices are very reasonable especially considering the quality of the food.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31835761.post-78051743722235226482009-01-20T15:21:00.000+11:002009-01-20T15:21:00.000+11:00We have been enjoying our "GIRLS NIGHTS OUT" at ...We have been enjoying our "GIRLS NIGHTS OUT" at The Rose of Thailand restaurant for YEARS! We love the food which I feel is delicately flavoured when necessary and rich and strong in other dishes. We have been trying to "eat our way through" the entire menu for ages , but never get tired of their delicious food. The service is very good, the owners and waitresses are always considerate, polite and remember everything you ask for! The atmosphere is gentle and relaxed and they always seem to have plenty of customers.You must check out the intricately hand carved light ! They have gradually added to the decor over time and we are looking forward to going there again next week..<BR/>Diane WAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31835761.post-67976640345764979142008-07-13T21:56:00.000+10:002008-07-13T21:56:00.000+10:00Aim, whenever Dennis next goes, I'm make sure he g...Aim, whenever Dennis next goes, I'm make sure he gets his Thai milk tea. <BR/><BR/>I really like fish sauce and don't care about the smell at all, so next time I'll try some more on my food. I also really like my food hot, so extra chilli for me please.<BR/><BR/>I'll be going back to you restaurant again.

Firstly...Aim, <BR/><BR/>I must say I am pleasantly surprised. Firstly, I didn't expect to actually hear a reply from you again.<BR/><BR/>Secondly, the fact that you could identify our meal from your records means you must run a very good restaurant. Everything you said is right. We were the last table near the wall. And we were a bit confused about the Thai Milk Tea as we have never seen the other pink drink at any other restaurant.<BR/><BR/>The Larb Chicken was a bit too bland from memory. I had one other larb chicken at another Thai place before and that was better, but still not great. So larb must be really hard to get right.<BR/><BR/>The lunch buffet sounds really really good. I'm always looking for a Thai restaurant that does lunch actually. I will come and try it out with my friends and work mates for sure. I will ask for you when I'm next there, just to say hi, not to claim a free meal hahaha.<BR/><BR/>Also, I will update my post to include your website.<BR/><BR/>Thank you so much for commenting and giving your point of view. I wish more restaurants would do that and fix up the problems that they may have.<BR/><BR/>Thanhthanh7580https://www.blogger.com/profile/12101572834580539226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31835761.post-79777387846133430312008-04-23T00:34:00.000+10:002008-04-23T00:34:00.000+10:00Dear Thanh and your friendsAs I expected, your ord...Dear Thanh and your friends<BR/><BR/>As I expected, your orders are<BR/>set B for 4<BR/>Beer Chang 3 bottles<BR/>1 Thai Ice Milk(sala flavour).<BR/>for $1XX.XX(for your privacy).<BR/><BR/>That is on 19 Jan 2008.<BR/><BR/>Yes they gave you the THAI ICE MILK (SALA FLAVOUR)(not Thai Ice Milk Tea), they even charged you for that drink, that is in the bill for your table, the last table on the row against the right hand walls, where you took the photo from.<BR/><BR/>There are 3 staffs from that night working tonight, one of them remembered your table, but they couldn't remember who served you. It must be two of the other 3 that are not working tonight that served your table.<BR/><BR/>Please note very few Thai restaurants in Australia will serve Thai Ice MILK flavour, which had confused some of our customers and our staffs. Since we have both Thai Ice Milk and Thai Ice Milk Tea.<BR/><BR/>Actually our captain, Chai, had encountered the same problems identical to your case, but he did confirm the mis-understanding with customers.<BR/><BR/>But in your case it is our staffs' fault that they gave you the wrong answers. But they did gave you the right bill (from their view though).<BR/><BR/>More important, I admited that I have had many complains from customers about LARB CHICKEN, since I work on the tables too. I DID complain that dish myself a few times. Larb Chicken is one of our few most difficult dishes to have quality control.<BR/><BR/>I have personally requested the stop on serving LARB CHICKEN for our Lunch Buffet, due to this reason.<BR/><BR/>Yes, it is our unsolve quality control for LARB CHICKEN.<BR/>But it is so popular and we still have to risk that part.<BR/><BR/>So, to all my customers, regarding any dishes, not just LARB CHICKEN, if you are not happy please tell us immediately. We will replace that dish with some other dishes or redone the same dish for you.<BR/><BR/>Please tell us when you visit us again, and claim your free Thai Ice Milk TEA for Dennis and LARB CHICKEN for all of you.<BR/><BR/>I would like you to try our Friday, Saturday and Sunday $13.50/adult LUNCH BUFFET, 11.30-2.30 pm.,<BR/>with 19 Thai dishes, Thai salad minibar and thai desert.<BR/><BR/>Thank you Thanh and your friends, and those other customers for supporting us.<BR/><BR/>Best Regards<BR/>Aim<BR/>www.roseofthailand.com<BR/>(we are updating the website soon)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31835761.post-22149261118452974512008-04-12T00:19:00.000+10:002008-04-12T00:19:00.000+10:00Hi Aim,The problem with the ice milk tea wasn't re...Hi Aim,<BR/><BR/>The problem with the ice milk tea wasn't really a problem. We were all just curious as to why the ice milk tea looked pink and smelt more like strawberry than the ice milk tea we were used to at other Thai restaurants.<BR/><BR/>We will definitely go back to your restaurant for more meals in future. The food was very good and the service good too.<BR/><BR/>We had dinner there on January 19th.<BR/><BR/>Thank you for reading my blog and commenting. It's great to know that restaurants pay attention and try to make their restaurants better.<BR/><BR/>Thanhthanh7580https://www.blogger.com/profile/12101572834580539226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31835761.post-40960223609126159592008-04-11T14:37:00.000+10:002008-04-11T14:37:00.000+10:00Dear thanh7580My name is Aim, I am a manager at Ro...Dear thanh7580<BR/><BR/>My name is Aim, I am a manager at Rose of Thailand, I am appreciate about your comments, and would like to thanks you for dinning and specially gave good comments on us.<BR/><BR/>I also have to make an appology to Dennis too, that the drink he got is not THAI ICE MILK TEA.

The lady talking the whole time was unfortunate, but I didn't deduct any points from the review for that as the restaurant have no control of that. <BR/><BR/>To give a restaurant 17, nearly everything would need to be perfect for me and the food of exceptional quality. I think I have only given that to one or two restaurants I have been to so far.thanh7580https://www.blogger.com/profile/12101572834580539226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31835761.post-41324878185793659742008-03-09T18:07:00.000+11:002008-03-09T18:07:00.000+11:00Unfortunate about the lady ... but seems to have h...Unfortunate about the lady ... but seems to have had some bearing on your judgement of the restaurant - equally unfortunate. We tend to go there quite regularly and the food and service are consistently excellent. Testament to this is the fact that they have survived for so long in a non-premier location.

Mel and I call such people "Qi-f**kers", as in f**king up one's Qi(気).<BR/><BR/>We had dinner one time at Flower Drum. Great food, but the experience was tainted by the boorish behaviour of a woman at the next table, who proceeded to tell her life's story to the whole restaurant. The more she drank, the louder she got. Felt like going up to her and saying, "Feel like a drink? How about a steaming cup of shut the f**k up?"ElegantGourmandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12385520067886799534noreply@blogger.com
