Thai Edge - Birmingham

I bet all you think we do is eat haha -  this would be an incredible dream if it were true :P Okay, so during last weekend, we had made a booking at Thai Edge in Birmingham for dinner for a family member's birthday! As much as we LOVE thai food, I've actually never visited Thai edge so yep you guessed it...we had to try it. The menu was actually quite large.. so we opted for the seafood banquet (£38.50 p/p) for 9 people. This included: 
STARTERS - SEAFOOD PLATTERSkewered minced prawn, Salmon satay, crab cakes and char-grilled prawns.SOUPTom yum goong - spicy prawn soup with lemon grass, mushrooms and fresh chilli. MAIN COURSES- Deep-fried lobster with celery, ginger and spring onion- Steamed sea bass topped with spicy fresh chilli sauce-Hoo mok talay : steamed fish and seafood wrapped in banana leaves with coconut milk, sweet basil, kaffir lime leaves and red chilli.- Goong gaeng keow waan : prawn green curry- Stir fried mixed vegetables- Seafood pad thai- Steamed riceThe starters were just about right for each person and wasn't too oily! The salmon satay were favourited the most as the taste took us by surprise, not your regular salmon taste nor satay! Next up was Tom Yum goong , I'm a fan of this soup and always order it at any Thai restaurant but I've got to say it disappointed me, as for me there was a bit too much coconut cream and wasn't spicy enough for me. As for the mains, from what I recall the best dishes were the prawn green curry, steamed seabass, and hoo mok talay. The lobster, pad thai noodles, and  vegetables were pretty average. The table was filled with soooo much food and we were all too full for dessert, but you cannot go to a Thai restaurant without having Mango and sticky rice! hehe and omg this was soo good especially the mango ice cream. Mmm Mmm definitely will go back for this! On this occasion, we were pleasantly content with the dishes that we ordered and disappointed on a few. It certainly does bring back memories from our trips to Thailand and the authentic food that we had, but wouldn't compare it to actually being in Thailand! Do you guys like Thai food? whats yours fave dish? Anybody know a recipe for Mango and sticky rice? :P Thanks for reading guys, Angela xo
