Was Adrian Rus at Chon a mag?
Brilliant, a real stand out in the Thai restaurant scene! Everything was still those great traditional flavours but with the modern edge that it needs to separate it from the rest!! Well worth the visit! We will be back! View all feedback.
What Asha Zemlak dislikes about Chon:
Ordered 4 dishes, the Fish and Prawn cake was very good, and others are pretty average, not good value for money. Their kitchen seems working on Uber orders only, churning out bag after bag, totally forgot dine in customers. It took more than an hour for us to get our main. View all feedback.
Pros: very interesting specials Had a beef fried kra Prow (stir fried with holy basil - Thai staple) which was very tasty and well presented.
An out of the ordinary Thai food experience . Pork is the business here .
Lovely spot out on the balcony, overlooking twilight Balmain replete with gentle breeze. Good atmosphere, handy wine list. Marc Bredif Vouvray perfect accompaniment to tasty food.<br/ <br/ Betel leaves spectacular, good pork belly in soft pockets, whilst the curry puffs were a hit with the kids. Crisp chicken wafer rolls a bit weird.<br/ <br/ Pad Thai disappointing strange vermicelli, tasteless. Pork belly sweet sour absolutely delightful crisp, yet gooey, really well done. Papaya salad also very tasty, balancing salty with sour and mild chilli.<br/ <br/ But the wait between courses was silly. Almost an hour between 2 X mains and next 2 X mains. Kids were over it, food had swelled, so appetite had dissipated. Fizzled to a fail.<br/ <br/ Adjoining table of disgruntled lovers provided a fascinating refrain.
Great to visit for the first time since the change in ownership, and find all of our favourite menu items still delivered at the highest quality. The only issue I had was the fact they closed up very early on a Saturday night and we were sort of moved on from the venue. It was only 9pm and we would have stayed for more drinks and dessert.
