Thaiphoon- Dupont

Thaiphoon

Thyphoon is a hippish stablishment with a full bar right at the entrance. The dining room offers and ample view to S street (great for people watching.)The menu offers a large variety of Thai dishes at remarkably affordable prices. The wine selection is not huge, but definitively good enough for even the pickiest drinkers (like myself.)

My friend and I usually order the Thaiphoon noodles, wide rice noodles with an array of seafood delights and perfectly crunchy vegetables. I usually request mine to be made firey hot with extra spice. This dish is delish. Appetizers are also a must, their calamari is amazing and their Satay with its delightfull sauces are just exquisite. The service is always prompt and extremely attentive. The cocktails at Thaiphoon are mean mean mean, if you like your liquor, the bartender definitively has a heavy hand. Thaiphoon is definitively one of our favorite places to visit within my friend's circle, not just 'cause of the strong drinks and the delicious food. It is a plance where everyone is always happy with their food.

My overall Rating: 8
Definitively a place to go with your pals, for a great meal, strong drinks and a nice contemporary ambiance.
