Boonchoo was a Thai restaurant and takeaway on Southampton Row in [[Locale Holborn|Holborn]]. It closed some time in 2009. As of September 2009, the site is occupied by a cafe called The Diner At Bloomsbury <small>[http://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/3904508325/ photo]</small>. The information below is retained for people who want to know what it used to be like. <div class="old_info"> Thai restaurant and takeaway on Southampton Row in [[Locale Holborn|Holborn]]. They also do delivery and you can order online [http://hungryhouse.co.uk/boonchoo from Hungry House]. [[secretlondon]] visited on a Monday evening in April 2009. I started with golden tofu puffs, which the menu claimed were served with ground peanut in sweet and sour plum sauce. This turned out to be six deep-fried tofu cubes, not marinaded, with a syrupy dip with a few peanuts in. I followed this with chicken pad Thai (£6.75), which was described as sweet and fruity sour. It was pretty tasteless, but I could identify the tamarind if not anything else. To drink, I had black goddess tea (£1.50) which was served in something a bit like a cafetiere. It felt average in a kind of anglicized way. I suspect they don't make their own sauces. Accessibility: No step to enter but entrance may be too tight. Some seating on a stage but some on level. Toilets not checked. See also: * [http://www.yelp.co.uk/biz/boonchoo-london Yelp comments] <div class="last_verified">Last visited by [[secretlondon]], April 2009.</div> </div>
