A lucky find

A friends review-

"'Lucky' is a bit dark & uninviting from the outside, but cool and clean inside.
The food was a bit slow in arriving, but when it did arrive - it was hot and fresh, and excellent. A thali set - 3 curries, rice, roti, poppadum, etc cost 89 Baht ... What a bargain. Other prices: lassi 35 Baht, water 10 Baht, chai 20 Baht.
The menu is entirely in English - and the staff member we spoke to did not understand Thai. English proved very useful! It's located on the bend in the soi.
'Lucky', opening hours 9.00~22.30, address soi Putta Osot 184.
Score: 9/10. One of the best finds I've made in Bangkok."
And my friend is not a vegetarian!

Wheatgrass powder is a product obtained from dehydrating the extracted juice of wheatgrass and sold as a dietary supplement. For some health enthusiasts, it is valued for its nutritional benefits since it contains high levels of beta-carotene, amino acids, B vitamins, and fiber.
