Cafe Yum Yum

Thai Spoon is the best thai place in the area. Their food is fresh and flavorful, everything on the menu is great. The thai matcha tea is so good, as well as the regular thai tea. Their fried items are amazing, the fried calamari is incredible, they always come out hot and crispy, never overcooked, clearly they come straight out of the fryer. They are willing to make accomodations, swap out vegetables and take away/add ingredients if possible. The staff is always friendly and attentive.

The day that I dined here the people in the booth in front of me and a guy across the room eating by himself talked about how they come regularly from Raleigh and Wake Forest to eat at this Durham restaurant. Absolutely everything that's on your plate was made in the house it's all so fresh and so good. I've never had better Thai food in my life. The owner brought a small bowl of chilies to the table so that we could make the food as hot as we wanted to. I wanted mine very hot. It only took two small servings of the Chili's to make the food hot enough to clean my nostrils out. And it was fresh. You have to be patient when you eat at this restaurant. The entire world is understaffed right now and the owner insists that things be done right. If you're in a hurry pick a different place. If you're willing to wait, the reward will be beyond your imagination. There is ample handicap parking and access at the Cross Creek shopping center. The layout of the restaurant is accommodating to handicapped visitors. Please consider some other options if you have small children.

Such good food and an awesome menu up in north Durham! We do takeout here regularly and the staff are always very friendly. Portion sizes are awesome as well, we usually have some leftovers for lunch. Favorites for us are: spicy basil stir fry, pineapple fried rice, Tom yum soup, and the green curry.

Really delicious food. An ideal takeout spot! Everything we have tried has been good, but we particularly like the pan fried dumplings, the drunken noodles, and the peanut beloved with beef. Peanut beloved is basically satay beef (or whatever protein you choose) but with more peanut sauce, some veggies and peanuts on top. Delicious. The portions are not as big as you might get elsewhere (as in you may not have leftovers) but the flavor and convenience to Rougemont make it well worth it!
