As is typical of my dining behavior at Thai restaurants (although Nori Thai serves Japanese food as well), I went straight for the curry section of the menu. I just love Thai curry so much I never seem to want anything else at a Thai restaurant. Now it is normally hot in Florida in the summer, but there was actually a heat wave going on during my visit (even the locals were complaining about the weather!), so I decided to go for something fruity and ordered the Pineapple Curry with Tofu. And boy, was it good! I hadn't been all that hungry when I got to the restaurant, but I finished every last bite of this dish. Yum yum yum. And for just $9.95? Even better.

The mango sticky rice also came highly recommended, so I was going to order it, but alas, they were out. Too bad. Well, maybe not so bad news for my waistline, since I had been eating pastries and cake all day leading up to my only proper meal of the day. I will have to try the mango sticky rice the next time I'm in town though. Overall, a two thumbs up for Nori Thai! Reasonable prices, comfy space, friendly service, awesome food - what's not to love?
