During our recent condo flood, when it was too hot and noisy to cook at home, we found ourselves turning to Typhoon!, just half a block down the hill, for two memorable take-out dinners. Fresh Salad Rolls were just so clean and refreshing with a spicy, peanut-packed Peanut Sauce and a perfectly cooked shrimp hiding within the rice-paper wrapper. The Summer Salad (shredded white chicken, blanched asparagus, and baby greens) was lightly dressed and sang of the season. Salmon Cakes provided a nice punch of protein, although I’ve had better versions about town. On another evening, Summer Curry with Shrimp and Spinach, served over brown rice, filled our longing for something warm and comforting. 

The recent remodel the bar area has undergone works well, with new banquettes and draperies in the bar that are sophisticated, yet inviting. We’ll check out the restaurant and report back in a future post.
