"Met up with a friend I hadn't seen in two years, and to change things up we walked up and down College like in Before Times. Saw the menu outside and it looked just right. We walked in and the hostess asked us if we wanted to sit away from the crowd, closer to the window (she later explained that there was a large rowdy party and didn't want us disturbed. So of course we were immediately amazed by her thoughtfulness! And then it got better. I got the pork pumpkin curry, my friend got an asparagus dish and both were seasoned beautifully (have been to some Thai spots where it tastes like everything was topped with the same sauce). The food came out quickly, and were in generous portions as well. We lingered to talk, and never felt pressured to pay and leave, and even had a lovely conversation with the hostess/waitress as we were finishing. What a wonderful way to catch up with a friend and really feel like part of a supportive community again."
