Although I work in Georgetown, Kentucky, I really don't know alot about what Georgetown has to offer as far as local cuisine. Well of course my favorite thing to do is find a local restaurant that is known for awesome food but not your typical local restaurant chain. I hopped on www.urbanspoon.com to get an idea of what is out there. I came across a Thai restaurant and knew instantly I had to check it out.
It is called New Thai Garden and located on North Broadway. As I pulled into the parking lot, I knew I had come to the right place for super delicious Thai cuisine.
The Thai lady who greeted me and took my order was so sweet. She barely knew any English and of course I couldn't understand what she was saying but we made it through the menu. The smile on her face would make any customer feel special each and every time they came here to eat.
I ordered the spicy Tom Yum Soup and the Pan Fried Dumplings as appetizer. Tom Yum Soup was filled with chicken, mushrooms, and onions. It was flavored with citrus leaves, lemongrass, lime juice, and cilantro. It had the perfect amount of hot spice and I even put some over my side of steamed rice. The dumplings were hand made and stuffed with pork, chicken, vegetable, and served with warm ginger sauce. They were delicious as well. I was outstandingly impressed with the food and felt right at home.
I've ate at several different Thai restaurants and New Thai Garden is by far the best Thai restaurant I've ate at. It is not a fancy restaurant nor is it big and decorative but It is true authentic Thai cuisine full of love and flavors.
If you ever get a chance to visit downtown Georgetown and craving Asian cuisine, please visit New Thai Garden. It is now one of my favorite restaurants and I will definitely be back.
