In a tiny way, I almost feel responsible. I'm the one who sent him to Thailand in search of low-cost whistles. Filled his head with pseudoerotic tales of my own Opium excursions. Plus, I have him some phone numbers of places he could score near the hotel

No I’m not talking about the one built by Henry VIII. I’m talking about the gastropub in Notting Hill. As usual for the area the pub has a Thai restaurant and there is no exception with Walmer Castle, nice laid back traditional pub style downstairs, and upstairs a Thai cuisine world.

We got a couple starters including the duck spring rolls and crispy squid with salt and pepper. Nice flavours and a good start. For mains we went for Kaeng Kiew Wan the traditional green curry with aubergine and added tiger prawns, and the Pad Kee Mao Talay stir fry noodles with prawns and squid.

The food was good, the curry was better than the noodles, nice flavours but not the best Thai I have had. Probably the Churchill Arms is a bit better. If you’re around and running out of options, or craving Thai give it a go, and the pub is a gem, really lovely with great atmosphere.
