• Asian Moon

  825 Franklin Ave
  Garden City, NY 11530

  Asian Moon is a restaurant close by my office that serves Asian fusion.  Most of their dishes are Thai oriented and I've been feeling like Thai food on a weekly basis so I decided to try out Asian Moon: 

  

  A nicely decorated interior that isn't crowded like other Asian restaurants:

  

  Chicken Malaysian Red Curry:

  

  Yes, I know it's not red but it's really yummy.  A good number of chicken, not a lot of green beans and pepper, but a really flavorful curry that's just the right thickness.  It's $7 for lunch and you get a choice or brown or white rice and soup or salad.

  Pad Thai:

  

  A lightly sauced, freshly prepared pad thai.  There isn't a lot of shrimp or any meat.  It's higher priced at $8.

  Tofu Thai Mango:

  

  This is for all my vegetarian readers!  A lot of soft juicy mango with a little bit of fried tofu.  Again, it's $7 with the same choices as the Malaysian Red Curry.

  We were running late so we told our waiter to rush our order.  They had our order out within 10 minutes and everything was piping hot and sizzling.  You could tell it was all prepared to order.  Although the staff didn't really understand or speak English well, they are all friendly and try to help as they can.  I came a couple times to Asian Moon and even ordered delivery (eating in is definitely better than delivery) and noticed that, although the quality for eat in is the same, the red curry tasted slightly different each time.
