Last time I waited for 30 mins, and you have to spend the time drinking in Triple Ace bar, possibly the worse bar in this hemisphere. At least they've managed to get Coopers Pale on tap.
Despite this god awful weather today we decided to hoof down to Wentworth Avenue (and whatever you might hear it was my idea) and indulge ourselves in some Spice I Am. Naturally we had to wait for a table.
Been a while since I've been here but not a lot has changed aside from a lick of paint. It's busy, noisy, cramped, and the food is fantastic.
Jumped on a classic and favourite of mine, chill basil stir fry.
That's some impressive presentation. And was matched in taste. A heads up that it was a very spicy dish from the waitress is always a good sign (what's Thai for 'Yo! I rocked 3 years living in Bangkok, bring it') and there sure was a decent bite.
Excellent selection of vegetables here with possibly the best bamboo shoots I've every had. And a pleasure to have tofu that wasn't deep fried, but flash fried in a block and then thinly sliced.
All in all it's fantastic to be heading back to Spice I Am and can't wait to check out some of the other dishes.
