This curry has been used in Jim Thompson’s house restaurant as a special by Chef for over 6 years.\u00a0 It was a best seller.\u00a0 It really is something you have to try, there is a good reason you charge 240b (little less that $10 but here it’s expensive) for it.\u00a0 This can be used on spaghetti or on it’s own.\u00a0 It’s really very special.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
