Hmm, I know a TF journal is not a great place to review a restaurant but hey I think this place is worth it. Very very few are. I have eaten there twice already, and am already looking forward to visit number 3.

The place is called Lotus Thai, and it's in Pretoria East (yes I know there are other TFers in Pretoria). The food rocks, and its Thai owned (a very nice lady called Sasipin). The picture of the Thai King and Queen really adds to the place as well. The two waitresses are always pleasant and smiling (one Thai and one South African), and Khun Sasipin is looking to expand the restaurant too. There is nothing like a gentle hand on the shoulder whilst the waitress (this time the Thai one) explains that your food is coming, it really makes you feel at ease

If anybody comes to SA, don't be shy and check this place out. Trust me it is worth it.

Foxie...pretty easy to get good Thai food in Los Angeles, but thats cuz theres so many Thai people here. We even have a Thai town that is pretty cool! The Palms restaraunt there is so good and authentic....they even have a Thai Elvis impersonator on Friday and Saturday. He is a real crack up!

LA Tf'ers should check it out!

Only need Thai Restaurant in Thailand,what other good excuse has one got to visit?
