I was pleasantly surprised by how cute the restaurant is on the outside, and the decor inside the cozy space is comfortable and inviting. Being pretty much a curry fiend, my attention was immediately drawn to the curry section of the menu. The Pumpkin Curry - a red curry with coconut milk, bell peppers, and basil - came highly recommended, so I went for it, with tofu as my choice of protein. It was highly satisfying. I particularly liked the fact that, unlike some other restaurants, the tofu isn't deep fried.

While rice was included, there wasn't a lot of it for the fairly sizable bowl of curry, so I only ate about half of the curry and took the rest home. I wanted to save room for dessert anyway!
Sticky Rice with Mango |
Sticky Rice with Mango is pretty much my go-to Thai dessert, probably thanks to my parents' influence as it is something they always order at Thai restaurants. The dessert really hit the spot and I was happy.
I was very pleased with my experience at Thai Suan Thip and am glad I finally got to try it out!
