Phuket Wakefield

Phuket in Wakefield has been under new management for a while so I decided to pay a visit at lunchtime to see if anything has changed. New (terrible) website and I think the name is now Phuket Thai Restaurant. Apart from that nothing has changed, same menu, same prices and the same chef in the kitchen.

Soup was the new vegetable soup, quite pleasant but quite a bit too salty today,

SEAFOOD BASIL ($9). Shrimp, scallops, squid, mussels, mushrooms, red peppers and onions in a spicy chili basil sauce. I asked for it extra spicy and it was barely one+ peppers. Everything was cooked nicely and exactly the same as on a previous visit and they confirmed that the previous chef stayed on in the kitchen. Unfortunately, it was still the sweet peanut dressing on the salad. They did quite a bit of business at lunchtime today and even had two customers at the outside seating.
