The Royal Orchid


The Royal Orchid is a very popular Thai restaurant and is usually full for both lunch and dinner.

bonne utilisation du mode Aquarelle (enfin je pense que c'est le mode Aquarelle)

The decor appeals to me. I'd try eating there.

I have never eaten Thai food. The processing of this looks great with the natural color palette.

I adore Thai food, and with many in the Twin Cities it might be difficult to find a favorite, but we found one very authentic restaurant that we frequent often. So good.

I googled religious schools in Cuba and found some interesting information on the web. Check my blog for my response to you.

I love Thai food so I bet I'd enjoy this place. I love the effect on this photo! Nicely done.

Lois said...

I'm not a fan of Thai food, but I do like the looks of this place!

Judy said...

Looks nice and the food must be good if the place is busy all the time. I have never tried Thai food and I should because we have a couple of places.

The houses you asked about in my picture today are the officers quarters at Fort Whipple VA hospital. They are about 150 years old.

I have had Thai food and it is very good. The decor is very nice, I love the wall and decorations on it. The only thing I don't like are the tablecloths. Great photo, Lowell!

I think you should give them this picture framed to hang on one of their walls. The effect you have used would suit the decor perfectly.

Pat said...

I think you should give them this photo, too.

Love Thai food!

Aquarelle----is this on Photoshop? If so, I must play...

With such a name it could only be Thai. Second time I visited Thailand I couldn't believe the amount of gorgeous orchids in the new Bangkok airport, they are everywhere! You immediately feel very welcome.

This shot lends itself very nicely to the effects. I agree that the restaurant might like a copy of it.

Thai is one of my favorite foods. Tom Ka Gai (coconut based soup) is a sublime pleasure when it's done right.

Cool. I'm sure I'd love it but the effect wouldn't be there!

Interesting looking place.

No we didn't plant the mushrooms but they do come up there every year---well twice I've seen them and Bob had never seen them before. I think they are very interesting

So you deleted all my witty and charming comments just because I was anon for a teeny while. I am sobbing. MB

Looks like another watercolor. I love it.

Are those storks on the wall? Somehow they look like they're carrying babies to me! :)
