Suwan Thai Launceston

A work colleague and myself had been discussing options of visiting a Thai restaurant in Launceston whilst there on a business trip. This is a case of where you should judge a book by its cover, the building hasn’t seen a whole lot of love in its recent times and sadly this applies to the meals. On arriving the waiter seated us and promptly disappeared, only to return 3 minutes later with no introduction but only to start standing there with a pen in silence looking like he had better things to do. My colleague ordered the “BBQ” Prawns and the “Green Curry” and I ordered the Gai Loong Soong “Deep fried chicken covered in mango Sauce” After around 15 minutes my colleague received the entree....

I don’t normally comment on restaurants but can not let this go without warning people. We booked a table for 7pm and when we walked in got told our table wasn’t ready.

I ordered takeout from this restaurant. The food was delicious and the service was great.

If the website had been updated to reflect the actual price, I may have chosen to order from somewhere else or make the curry at home. It's disappointing that in Tasmania, with the lowest wages and commercial rents in the nation, dining out can still be so expensive for a simple meal.

We were excited to try this restaurant, the service was excellent the young man who served us was polite and helpful. The food was ok, the nasi goreng the best dish we had very nice but serving a bit small. Mango sauce didn’t have much flavour. Veggies a bit flat. A bit pricey perhaps considering meal sizes. But in saying all that we would probably go back for another try.
