After church on Sunday my wife and I walked around the area a bit looking for a bite to eat.  We came across Cafeteria Spice Jaya and were intrigued by the thai green curry and chicken pho on the menu.  The ordering system is a digital vending machine, with the option to switch languages to English, so that was nice and easy.

Green and japanese curries

We got a chicken pho, and a mixed curry set with both green and Japanese chicken curries.  We also added a little empanada like thing that turned out to be stuffed with something like keema.  It was delicious.  The place has serve yourself water, coffee, tea and soup, which was nice.

Chicken pho

The chicken pho was a disappointment, being pretty bland and not very pho like.  The curries however were both very good, with a good bit of spice in there too.  I would definitely not mind coming back and getting a full portion of either.

The place had a nice small shop vibe and we enjoyed eating our meals to Japanese interpretations of Disney classics being sung in the background (there may have been some singing along...).
