At the same location but under new ownership, Asian Flavor’s loyal customers enjoy a varied menu. Owner David Musselwhite entered this new venture in February 2017, bringing his and his family’s own flair to Asian and Thai fare.
Musselwhite views his first foray into the restaurant business as an investment in his family’s future – and family certainly plays an important role in this endeavor. His friend and business partner, Tatsanawans, and her sister, Sandee, both provide support in the kitchen. Sandee owned and cooked in her own restaurant in Bangkok and brings her own style to Asian Flavor. She is the chef behind the tasty Thai recipes on the menu, and she also makes her own teriyaki. With so many customers clamoring for Asian Flavor’s teriyaki dishes, the menu has been expanded to accommodate several new options.
The spring rolls get rave reviews, as do the crabmeat rangoons. If you are looking for something a little spicier, try the pad Thai! The shrimp fried rice is delicious and the sesame chicken will have you wanting to order the same again tomorrow. Other favorites include the shrimp pad Thai, General Tsao’s chicken, and sweet and sour chicken.
Asian Flavor also serves a vegetable Thai red curry that is “sooo good,” according to a Yelp review. The same reviewer recommended the pad kee mao with tofu. Yelp reviewers also commend Asian Flavor on choosing to use authentic brown fried rice instead of dyed or processed rice. And, of course, you should try the spring rolls, which are made in-house. These are thinly wrapped, perfectly fried and delicious!
Asian Flavor offers a small area for inside dining, takeout and home delivery at no extra charge.
Asian Flavor is located at 1145 Johnnie Dodds Blvd. in Mount Pleasant. To learn more, visit www.asianflavormtp.com or call 843-971-6868.
