There is a pavement around the restaurant and the door was firmly closed and discreet style.

It was not written in this review.

The preparation for steak beef is focused on in the review.

We can easily understand the atmosphere of the restaurant because we can see the video and we can listen the information at the same time.
*Is the review neutral or partisan?
I think this review was neutral. This review has good impression on many people, I think.
*Are chefs, owners, managers, or restaurnt staff featured in the video? Do you think this was helpful in providing useful information about the restaurant or did it make the review too biased?
Augus O'Hara, who is the executive chef and sommelier featured in the video. I think this was helpful to provide information about the restaurant. His information is easy to understand and real. The real voice is needed in review.
Thai Garden
Best hopes and wishes for
the New Year!!
On January 4th, I went to the
restaurant which is called “Thai Garden” with Shiori. We choose this restaurant
to review because we both love Thai food. This restaurant is located in Shibuya. It takes less than 5 minutes from Shibuya station to Thai garden.
The sign of this restaurant is like this:
Green curry includes chicken, eggplant and bamboo shoot. It has a little bit coconuts taste and it was really delicious!! Tom yum goong soup contains noodles, welsh onion and mushroom. It had a slightly sour taste. And the salad concludes bean starch, onion, prawn, welsh onion, carrot and cabbage. It was flavored with a sweet chili sauce. It was very good:)
And after 5 minutes, pattai set was served.
Set menu was the same with green curry.
Pattai has sweet and spicy taste. I ate pattai for the first time and pattai became my favorite food. It contains bean sprouts, prawn, thick deep-fried tofu, garlic chive and peenats.
