Goong Thai Takeaway in Harlow

We discovered this gem of a Thai takeaway in recent weeks and it has become are regular. However, today the team went above and beyond expectations and made special accommodation for a large order allowing us to be able to celebrate my father-in-law’s 80th birthday. Everything was cooked to perfection and we are extremely thankful for the special accommodation. Highly recommend with great options for vegetarians and meat eaters alike! Thank you!

On the plus side, my take away was delivered sooner than expected, the delivery driver was very friendly and courteous. On the negative side, the chicken satay was a bit odd, just thin slices of chicken breast coated in turmeric. The egg fried rice was under seasoned, the beef in my main dish was very tough and chewy. I was expecting more so I have to say that I was disappointed. My saturday night treat was a bit of a let-down.

Never tried this place before but found an old flyer so thought I’d give it a go. I wasn’t disappointed, Food arrived quickly and was hot. Pad Thai was delicious and was accompanied by little pots of peanuts and chilli. Satay and sals were excellent and salid wasn’t the usual limp offering. Tom Yum soup was fragrant and flavoursome with lovely big prawns, homemade spring rolls were light, crisp and full of filling.
