Samia Talha Ansari of Sam's Kitchen was kind enough to send some delicious food enough for a family of 4 yesterday. And of course, my family being my family, had a little pre-tasting while I was at work, and I got calls thanking me for a delicious meal.
The packaging is economical and standard delivery aluminium boxes and plastic bags. No complaints there.
Now, I can understand sending fried items completely done for tasting, but as I suggested to Samia as well, it's best to send things like spring rolls, wontons and crispy fried beef either half done or raw, so that they can be fried and consumed on the spot. While the flavors for everything we're really good, the sogginess of the spring rolls and wontons and the chewiness from reheating the crispy beef wasn't so great.
The red Thai curry in my opinion was the star of my evening. It came along with starchy, squished together short grain rice which absorbed the curry well. I did feel that galangal was missing from the curry, but other than that it was reminiscent of the old Baan Thai red curry.
All in all, Sam's Kitchen is yet another valiant effort by another individual passionate about good, healthy and wholesome food. I wish Sam's Kitchen all the best.
