OC Restaurant Quest: Thai Princess in Bloomfield Township
(Crystal A. Proxmire, July 8, 2024)
Bloomfield Township, MI – Beautiful food deserves a beautiful setting, so I want to start this review of Thai Princess off giving props to the amazing decor in what otherwise would have been a very simple strip mall space. The walls are adorned with greenery, accented with golden features and upholstery that pops with dynamic dark green and white stripes and rich sunset gold pillows. It made me wish I hadn’t ordered to go, though I do anticipate that I’ll be back.
I started with an order of Chicken Spring Rolls, which were crispy and delicious. I also tried the Satay Chicken which are seasoned chicken skewers served with peanut sauce and cucumber honey syrup. I was impressed with the quality of the chicken and the rich flavor.
I ordered two main courses, saving one for the next day’s lunch.
First up was the Mango Delight, made with chicken. The Mango Delight is listed as a Thai Princess Specialty. This was an amazing choice that combined the savory taste of deep fried battered chicken with refreshing bites of fresh mango, all tied together with sweet and sour sauce.This may as well have been candy it was so sweet and addicting.
The Rama Noodle had sauteed flat rice noodles with steamed mixed veggies in peanut sauce. This was also a great choice, with nice fresh veggies making this a solid, well-rounded meal with just a little bit of a kick to it.
For desert was Homemade Coconut Ice Cream. Obviously this was delightful.
Thai Princess has a variety of menu options, including Coconut Noodle, Rad Nah, Pad Thai, various Curries and Fried Rice dishes, and more specialties like Khao Soi which is crispy egg noodles served with chicken or beef in yellow coconut soup. The Thai Spicy Seafood Salad also sounds like an interesting choice. It’s got shrimp, scallop, squid, and imitation crab mixed with celery, tomato, onion, and scallion in a spicy lime sauce.
Thai Princess is located at 2436 Franklin Road in Bloomfield Township, facing Square Lake Road just east of Telegraph Road. Learn more and order online at https://www.thaiprincessbloomfield.com
