For those of you who were sad to [bid adieu to Amma-Chili Basil Thai Kitchen](/business/amma-chili-basil-thai-kitchen-relocating-to-church-avenue) this fall, we have good news for you!

Sawasde Thai Cooking has just opened in the former Amma-Chili Basil Thai space at 359 McDonald Avenue, and owner Brian Wong told us he’s excited for the neighborhood to try out the new spot.

Brian, who also owns [Ghang Thai Kitchen](http://www.ghangthai.com/?ref=bklyner.com) at 229 Court Street in Cobble Hill, said they’re working on getting the entire planned menu up and running – but they’re open for business!

While we haven’t gotten to try the restaurant yet, we’ve been drooling over the menu. They have a huge range of items, including Thai dumplings ($5), curry puffs ($7), and crispy spring rolls ($5) for appetizers. For lunch, they have a number of specials, and for $9, you can get Pad Thai, a variety of curries, drunken noodle, and more. Plus, the specials come with a crispy spring roll, dumplings, soup, or salad, as well as a soda or water.

For dinner, there are again, about a million options, including pumpkin curry ($9.50 with chicken or tofu & veggies), massamun curry ($9.50), pad see-ew ($9 with chicken or tofu and veggies), duck noodle soup ($9), and a whole lot more. For the dinner specials, there is duck pineapple curry ($16), spicy red snapper ($15), grilled salmon mango salad ($17), massamun beef roti ($14), and more.

Desserts include sweet coconut sticky rice and mango, fried ice cream, and taro sticky rice (all $6).
