another restaurant review - Stevie's Golden Wok

OK. It's the first day of chinese new year and I am alone in Lahore. So we had dinner at Golden Wok, DHA phase 3. GW is a Thai/Chinese place owned by Steve Wong, a Chinese Pakistani or is it Pakistani Chinese? In case you are confused, he's yellow. The chinese there is well, really for the locals. But the Thai there is actually not bad. Try the tom yam, green curry and red curries. The squid salad is also not too bad. And the good thing is you can bring your grog safely, the staff are quite bottle friendly. The other 2 Thai places are the one in PC and Lemon Grass in town. LG is no big deal but holds good memories for me. It was the first place I had a drink in lahore. I was 2 weeks in lahore and a mate of mine came to visit me. We finished one and a half litres of Chivas 18 year old that night. When you have been dry for 2 weeks .... Apparently when he went back to the hotel he had to ask the staff to bring him to the room cos he could not remember which room he was in (and this was after numerous tries with the key).
