Khantoke Thai

Tags

 


Khantoke Thai is a restaurant specializes in Thai cuisine as its name suggests.  It is located at the heart of Downtown Hillsboro Main Street.  At the store front of the restaurant, there are many figuring showing the Thai cultural wagons and Thai traditional outfits.  The restaurant also has a very cozy vibe where the decoration of the restaurant is mainly constructed out of bamboo.



We got the new flyer from Khantoke Thai few weeks ago and their colourful flyer is full of delicious meal.  It intrigued us to try out the food at Khantoke Thai.  We got to Khantoke Thai around 5:30PM on a Friday evening.  There were only 2 groups of customers at the restaurant and there was only a single server.  We ordered a Roti with Yellow Curry and a Pineapple Fried Rice for takeout.  While we waited for our order, we took a walk outside.  While we took a stroll outside, there were many other restaurants and also a food cart place.  It was a very competitive region for restaurants to survive.  After 20 minutes, we went back to Khantoke Thai and got all orders.  When we took our to go order around 6:00PM, there were still only 2 tables of customers.

We were really excited about the Roti, but when we opened the box we were disappointed.  The roti was very thin and seemed to be a frozen food product instead of handmade Roti.  We were not pleased.  The yellow curry had a really good taste and full of coconut flavour.  The Pineapple Fried Rice filled the whole box, but was a bit too salty and quite greasy.  We didn't like it much either and disappointed with this as well.


Overall, we were disappointed with Khantoke Thai.  The food offering did not meet our standard and it could explain why there weren't many customers at the restaurant.  Hopefully it will improve its food quality in the future.
