I wanted a simple meal at the food court at 1932 cafe. What caught my eyes was the authentic Thai food hidden at far right corner. Ordered few dishes and surprisingly all good and spicy. Need to tell her to tone down the spiciness next time. The three flavor fried fish was amazing. If you are in area and craving for Thai food. This is the place. Friendly service with great food. Highly recommended.
