After spending some time walking around and getting a bit rained on, we decided that we definitely needed some food to kill our hunger.
We happened upon this place while walking around Chapman & Lownsdale Squares. Located just a block away from the square it seemed like a nice restaurant to just stop and have a quick Italian meal.
The restaurant is more like a "dinner" type atmosphere. The food was good and cheap and we were able to spend a few hours enjoying our meal before we left for the aiport.

My favorite dish is the ever popular wienerschnitzel, but eveything from Jaegerschnitzel to rabbit to roast pork is available. Dinner includes fondue before the main meal. Imported German beers and wines. The portions are huge and you will NOT leave anything but stuffed.

Nice, clean places which is also not always seen.
Think there may be a new , "in" place opening up in the NW section but haven't ventuired there yet.
Love the Gaeng Mussman - a curry dish. Yellow curry and all the goodness that goes with that.
Noodle dished are all pretty good too.
A tad Americanized, so don't think you'll get the most authentic. Can't beat steadily good though. Leave a Comment

Grolla is off the beaten path but well worth a visit. The small corner restaurant offers open wall views during the summer and wonderfully romantic settings in the evenings. The rich colors and European charm are throughout and the food amazing. I really could have licked the plates!!! The meals were fantastic and the sauces were to die for. Yum! The owners are Chris and Angela and are both very involved with the restaurant and planning. Chris comes from a Middle East background and Angela from Oregon. The two met and put the two tastes together in a way unexpected.
The last time I was there I split two appetizers [the cheese plate & shrimp dish] and the non-flour chocolate cake. I was stuffed! The meals are equally filling. Enjoy!

The interior is vague and nothing wonderful. White walls are adorned with items that represent or are from Ethiopia. There is a drink refrigerator in the middle of the room which is out of place and doesn’t add to the ambiance. In the corner of the room they have a space for the traditional Ethiopian Coffee Ceremony. The upside to Abole is the food and the wait staff which are both wonderful. There is another Ethiopian restaurant down the street called Mudai – but the smoke from the lounge above wafts into the restaurant (1st floor) so I don’t like eating at the place. The only smells at Abole are food, coffee and incense.
Doro Wat is one of my favorite Ethiopian meals. It is a chicken dish with a dark sauce that consists of onions, cayenne pepper, paprika, black pepper and ginger. It is usually served with one hard boiled egg. At Abole they cut the meat up and mixed with the sauce. I have always had it as a solid chicken leg – which I love.

I can't believe we have lived here for 9 years and JUST ate here! What a waste of searching for a nice restaurant when there was one right around the corner from us for the last couple of years!
Thai Spoon is nothing special to see from the exterior but the interior is delightfully Thai and the colors are warm and inviting. The tables are dressed to the nines and the service is fantastic.
The food …the food is to die for. We ordered the Sa-Tay ($7) which was five chicken skewers, with veggie garnish and a side of peanut sauce and cucumber salad. It was very good and I would order the cucumber salad on its own as it was one of the best I have had. The rice vinegar added a sweet touch to the cucumber and the onion and jalapeño gave it a slight bite – absolutely wonderful.
We also ordered the Tom Yum with combo seafood ($11). Although I have had one that I liked better in Vancouver (WA – of all places), I preferred the seafood collection in this soup much more! You can see why in the pix. It was well worth it!
To finish off the meal we ordered the pork fried rice ($7.95) and some yellow curry with beef ($7.95). Both were phenomenal. Thai Spoon is now my husbands’ favorite place to get fried rice. The flavors were wonderful and it was not greasy. Most asian places add to much oil/butter. The yellow curry was equally impressive with a mild spice and perfect vegetable accessories (potatoes, onion and tomato).
The Thai Tea was refreshing and although very sweet – one of the better ones I have had. We topped the meal off with a scoop of coconut ice cream.
I love the Tom Yum seafood combo soup. It is slightly spicy which gives the variety of seafood a nice base to rest within. The array of seafood is amazing visually as well as pleasing to the palate. My husband loves the fried rice and has not stopped talking about it since our last visit there. This is by far his favorite fried rice joint now. It is a perfect combination of salty and sweet and the rice was tender but not hard or goopy. It was very good.
