Taichipan Restaurant - The Beautiful South Series

I would have never had tried this one if it wasn't for recommendations... and I am sure glad that I did! Take the recommendations of some of my friends too, try Taichipan for yourself.

I had a hankering for sushi and hubby wanted something more along the Thai flavours, so this place was a great suggestion. The name, we realised, tells you exactly the kind of food they serve. Thai-Chinese-Japanese. We went online to see their menu (see the menu here) Not only did the great selection grab our attention, but the prices are brilliant. Good prices for sushi can go so wrong... but not in this case!! 

It was a chilly winter evening and the little restaurant that seats no more than 40 people was rather empty, but from the orders that went past us to the front counter we figured that many people in and around the Glenvista area had opted for takeaways. 
The decor is clean, Asian simplistic with white, green and black colour blocking. Not very cosy for a winter date night... but the food and company made up for it.
Here are some of the pics I snapped with my phone...

If you are brave enough to weather the cold pop in, or wait for a hot summer night, there is place to sit outside in the Glenvista Shopping Centre, 188 Bellairs Drive, or do as most seem to do, call in for a take away. 011 432 6636.
