Mint Café

Last week, Doc and I went to Mint Café, a Thai restaurant near our house. Because Doc was still full from lunch, we decided to keep it light! Doc had lunch with Raj, one of the Jones' renters who treated him with a authentic Indian dish...Doc learned how to eat with his fingers, and Raj was happily surprised to see that Doc could handle hot and spicy food.

Anyway, I ordered a shrimp coconut soup, with tempura crab with a salsa mango. Doc ordered a seaweed salad and s soup as well. The soups were good, but unfortunately, we ended up having our 4 dishes out at the same time, and felt I had to rush eating my soup. I guess nobody is rushing me, but it is a feeling I have... Anyway, my crab looked beautiful, but was very disappointing! It was covered in a orange sauce, which was sooo sweet and made the crab soggy! I think it is the same one they would serve with eggrolls or something...The parts that were not covered were nice and crisp, and tated delicious with the salsa, which was awesome.
The salsa was mostly mango with cucumbers, red onion, and carrots with the right amount of lime juice and cilantro...yum...too bad, they had to spoil this dish with this cheap sweet orange sauce!
