For Greg's birthday we decided to try something different, this pick ended up being fusion of Creole-Thai style cuisine.

Hidden on the Cheshire Bridge strip is the restaurant with a bright red neon sign on the road.

The staff were a mix of Asian and Caucasian which was very interesting. The bar area was empty, but the dining room area was quietly buzzing with a few patrons scattered around the room of white table cloths with candles.

We started off with Moscato Spumanti, Chardonnay, and a Pinot Noir.

Our picks for the appetizers were Oysters Sara on a bed of cream spinach and the seafood gumbo.  The oysters were crispy on the outside; seasoned and cooked to perfection. Both the oysters and creamed spinach with mushrooms paired well together with the wonderful Hollandaise sauce.  The gumbo was a very dark colored roux with pieces of andouille sausage, crawfish, shrimp and celery that packed a lot of flavor.  After finishing up with our appetizers, our main course picks arrived proptly therafter.

We decided to each pick an entre and share them among each other.  Greg ordered the Ginger Snapper, and Jenn chose the combination of the Red Curry Salmon with Scalops and veggies. The Ginger Snapper was delicious combination of lightly dusted Snapper filet with pieces of fresh ginger and mushroom with ginger sauce accompanied by a rice pilaf and veggies. The salmon was sauteed in a wok with curry sauce accompanied by lightly cooked scallops and rice pilaf with fresh sauteed veggies. The taste of the wok and the curry was unbelievable.

A good time was had by all and not one morsel was left to take home, leaving no room for dessert.
