Beware evening prices vs lunch. I'm used to ordering Panang or Pumpkin curries during lunch hours and they come with rice and are delicious. However I ordered a Panang curry last night and I accepted that it was $3 more than what I usually pay at lunch but I didn't expect it to come without rice too. Under normal circumstances I'd rate this place 5 stars but because of their stingy evening potions I'm only giving 4 and won't be ordering evening because their prices are too high for what you get.

The 8. Roti and 33. Yellow Curry are delicious. To my surprise the almost $20 curry doesnt even come with a side rice, I guess you have to order rice too. For the price, I would expect either more curry or for it to come with a side of rice.

For a dish that is not cheap, the crispy duck was very dry and it was an extremely small portion of actual duck. I was also annoyed that the description simply said "crispy duck with basil sauce" and they give you the options to add rice. I added fried rice for an extra $4. When I got the dish it came with two portions of rice, the fried rice I added and a different one that it must already come with. It also came with vegetables. If I would've known that from the description I would not have wasted $4. Why would I want two portions of rice. Overall, I was not impressed with any of my order or the restaurant itself, unfortunately.
