In my opinion a restaurant that says they specialize in Thai food, Indian Cuisine, Chinese food, Indonesian Style cooking and Japanese, has a lot to live up to. We can narrow it down a bit, because with all these options to choose from the chef has forgotten which spice goes where and opted to simply omit all spices.

For the price tag, the food could not only be more flavorful, but more plentiful.

My husband and I took our toddler to this exquisitely decorated restaurant that all of the foreigners, who live in Costa Rica, constantly rave about. They all claim to it to be the best all around. Maybe so, but from the expensive seat that I was in, I could safely say my food at home is more tasty, and I’m by far a expereimental cook.

Also, with the elegant ambiance, this is not a recommended hang out for families with very loud children, i.e. my son. After he finished entertaining himself with the crayons they offer, and had a few nibbles of the bland food, he was raring to go. Gratefully, we were ready for a quick escape as well.

My recommendation, if you’re going to spend the cash, check out it’s next door neighbor–Don Wang.
