If you really did have undercooked food, I'm sure if it was mentioned to any of the staff, it would have been fixed/replaced immediatly. I have been eating Toom's cooking for about a year and a half now (since she worked at Thai Zie) and never once have i been unsatisfied. this is what people in the corprate world call "dirty business". how much does your resteraunt pay you to say this? Vijay,

Because if you have and actually talked to the owners or one of their daughters (who are always there) you would know that it states that they are Authentic Thai and Chinese food, and that the family is both Thai and Chinese, that is how their food is authentic. The father (who is Chinese) cooks Chinese food and their mother (who is Thai) cooks Thai food. To top it off, the family goes to Thailand every year and they always bring back with them dried, but HOT, chili peppers and REAL palm sugar that goes into some of their amazing Thai dishes. I have grown up with Bangkok House before they bought the Shanghai Restaurant and it is the best Thai and Chinese food that I have eaten in Elgin since I was 9. I am just responding to clarify about what you wrote and not being negative to Toom Toom, so please don't you be negative to Bangkok House and Shanghai Restaurant. “I don’t see How Bangkok House is so authentic, obviously it’s mixed with Chinese food” Obviously, Ann you have not been to the Bangkok House and Shanghai Restaurant before.

WOW the food was great. The appetizers were great and the service was top notch. I am more of an Italian food eater but I was forced to attend a business lunch there last week.

The food was the best I have had in the Thai realm. The freshness of the ingredients, the personal attention by the owner, and the great location will keep me coming back.

The food was nothing less than delightful. In fact, I've been craving it all week. It tastes like she made it just for me as if I were her family. I moved here from the city and always loved Duck Walk on Belmont. I don't miss Duck Walk anymore. I think I'll go over to visit Toom tonight. Green curry...mmmmmmm.... Toom is a wonderful.

It has all the makings of being one of the secretly good places to eat. No evidence of cardboard boxes with pre-cooked food. It's almost a mnadatory stop if you want to eat downtown. A good "second or third-date" place to go. This is a classy restaurant and very affordable. It has all the makings of being one of the secretly good places to eat.
