THAI CHINPALA KITCHEN - Ashgrove

On Saturday afternoon, we were searching for a place to have lunch. This restaurant was one of the few that was open and it had everything...

The prices are high for the portion sizes. The ingredients are fresh. The staff is friendly, making it a good choice when all the other restaurants in Ashgrove are closing for the night.

The interior of Chinpala Kitchen is not very impressive. The tables are covered with plastic and the seating is humble in appearance. Before the recent renovation...

This is THE worst Thai food I have ever had. Being to Thailand multiple times, there is nothing authentic about this food! I ordered a roasted red duck curry and a cashew stir fry. The curry looked light brown and was watery with no flavour. The chicken stir fry was also watery and the meat was rubbery. I don't usually write reviews but when the food was inedible, I feel it necessary to pre warn people. Such a disappointment and a complete waste of money.

I had a delicious lunch here today ... I ordered vegan massaman curry (($15) with rice ($3) ... it's authentic resturant serving authentic food cooked by a Thai chef ... one of the best massaman curries I have tasted outside of Thailand
