Chili Club Thai House
A few people have mentioned this place on here, but no real details.
Went there last night with the wifey. First and foremost, it was one the best meals I have EVER had in Calgary. A Thai place with authentic taste. Called at 5 for reservations, and the earliest they had was for 8:30. Showed up on time and right away it felt like a New York type restaurant. It’s small (50 cap) with 2 feet space between the party next to you. To some that type of seating may feel cramped, I'm used to it. By 8:30 it was not overly packed so we had a table buffer on each side. Because it was so late, we skipped appys and salads and went straight for the entrees.
Ordered the (listing the content vs the Thai name) Beef/Mushroom/Baby corn, Cashew Chicken/Pineapples/Peppers/Onions, Pad Thai/Shrimp/Chicken, and a couple orders of Coconut rice. The Beef and Chicken were flavorful right into the meat vs just a sauce on top, and was complemented by the Coconut rice nicely. The noodles were quite flavorful as well. Make sure to order the Chili Peanut Sauce on the side as it gives everything the required kick. To top it off they gave complementary dessert consisting of Coconut Ice-cream with 4 kinds of fruit and topped with a Vanilla wafer. Both of us agreed that this place was better than our top New York Thai restaurants, which we swear by. Best for an intimate date or small group place. We have already planned to return next month with more people.
