WARNING: Something has happened to this place. My girlfriend and I used to love it, but now the food is terrible. The service has fallen off, too. We went a month ago and the food was completely flavorless and it also took forever to arrive. But, since this was one of our favorite restaurants we decided to give it another shot tonight. Again, terrible. The food took forever to arrive and my dish came with chicken even though I'd ordered shrimp. Also, we specifically requested ""spicy"" and there wasn't a hint of spice in the food. It was so bland that if I had been blind-folded, I don't think I would have known it was Thai food. The calamari used to be our favorite appetizer but now the portion was 1/3 the size. And it was so crumbly that you couldn't pick it up with a fork. My girlfriend's duck was just pieces of grizzle. We heard the people at the table next to us complaining about the flavor, too.\r

I don't know what happened to this place. Maybe they got a new chef or are under new management. We are pretty bummed out because this was our favorite Thai restaurant in the East Village. Sad.
