On Saturday night I was lucky enough to return to Imperial Wharf and visit Saran Rom. This place is very special indeed. From the amazing food to the perfect service, you are guaranteed to have a great experience here.
The restaurant itself is stunning. A great deal of thought has gone into the layout and each table looks beautiful with its perfectly matched cutlery and glasses. The menu has a very wide range of delicious sounding dishes. I am lucky in that I got to sample quite a lot of them. The starters in particular are very exciting.
This was a plate of prawns wrapped in rice noodles. It was a little dark in the restaurant for my camera, but rest assured all the other dishes were just as beautiful. The duck spring rolls were probably my favourite in terms of flavour but the beef with green curry sauce came a close second. The green curry was as good, if not better, than the green curries I had in Thailand.
The highlights in the main courses were the smoked duck curry and the crispy red snapper with mango sauce. I had a herby spicy venison dish which was also very tasty.
The team serving us were faultless in every way. Our waiter, Greg, was fabulous through the entire meal. He has obviously come to know the menu very well and is always ready to give good advice on the dishes. The style of service is fairly formal but not intimidating.
The highlight of the meal has got to be the amazing Irish cofee. They make this in front of you at the table and it really is spectacular!
So if you are in London and like Thai food, give this place a try. You won’t be disappointed.

How much was it all?

haha… I wasn’t allowed to see the bill to be honest… but to give you some idea…
I know that most of the main courses were around £14 not including rice/noodles. The atarters and desserts were around £6 each. The wines, which were all fabulous, were at the bottom end of the restaurant’s price list, so about £18 per bottle.
I would say expect to pay between £55 and £60 per head for the full works (three courses, wine + coffee including service charge). I’m sure I’ll be corrected on that tomorrow if I’m far out. For this quality of food and service in London I’d say it’s very reasonable.
