Thai food delivery service | Master Asia Wok via Lieferheld.de After a short break over the Christmas holidays, I dedicated myself to my next, and thus third, delivery service in my "Delivery Service Check" series. Sushi and pizza This time I opted for Thai food and chose a delivery service that delivers delicious Thai dishes. I selected the delivery service again via the reliable platform. Lieferheld.de. First of all, I have to admit: As you may have seen on my Facebook fan page, I spent the last 10 days in the Canary Islands, where Asian, or rather Thai, cuisine is rather limited, I was really looking forward to food "from other cultures." However, I was feeling under the weather with a cold and lay on the sofa, so I ordered delivery.

I quickly found the delivery service "Master Asia Wok" on Lieferheld by selecting the "Asian" category. They offer sushi, Asian, and Thai food. The reviews from previous customers were almost unanimously positive, and the selection of dishes was sufficient. So, in my opinion, there was nothing wrong with ordering and giving it a try, and I chose some delicious-sounding Thai dishes for myself and my friends (or rather, my "caregivers" that evening 😉). I'd like to take this opportunity to briefly mention that you shouldn't just focus on the average number of overall ratings (or, on Lieferheld, the number of stars), because many customers give "somewhat strange" reviews, to put it mildly. It often helps to read the reviews and consider whether they are relevant to the food itself. 😉 (From "Ringed the doorbell for too long," to "No current newspaper, even though it was mentioned online," to "My husband ate everything," I've seen the most colorful "negative reviews" for delivery services.) So take a closer look.

We opted for vegetarian spring rolls with a slightly sweet and sour Thai sauce (€2.90) as a starter. We also chose the "Thailand Menu" (€25.50), which was listed under "Highly Recommended Menus." Designed for two people, it included two Tom Yum Gang soups with coconut milk, crispy chicken in spicy Thai curry sauce or a variety of meats, shrimp and vegetables, as well as two portions (your choice) of fried banana or pineapple with honey and almonds. We then selected two "simpler" Thai dishes to try: egg noodles with shrimp and vegetables (€9.10) and rice with fresh vegetables, tofu, and Thai peanut sauce (€7.90). In addition to the main courses, we also ordered a can of lychee juice (€2.00) and a bottle of Diet Coke (€2.50). In total, we paid €49.90 for everything via Paypal and of course gave the nice driver a little tip.

Regarding the dishes in detail: The Thailand menu was a good choice. The two soups were huge portions and extremely spicy (if you don't like that sort of thing, don't choose it). Loaded with shrimp, mushrooms, and other ingredients, it was a great appetizer. Only order the menu for two people, as it was quite substantial. The other main courses (see the photos in the gallery) were also all very generously portioned and loaded with plenty of vegetables, meat, tofu, or shrimp. Even with such "simple" dishes, I've often had to throw half of it away because it was inedible, cold, or mushy – definitely not the case here. The dessert of the menu was, of course, a bit too soft, as the breaded apple rings (apple rings were delivered instead of the pineapple that was selected) were sitting directly in the honey and became soggy. However, this didn't really bother us, and so we ate all six apple rings from the Thailand menu, as well as everything else, completely (Yes, we were full! ;-)).

Unfortunately, I made a mistake when placing my order. I selected the item, clicked on "pay via PayPal," and the order was processed as usual, simply and easily with Lieferheld. Well… I forgot to enter the voucher code I had specifically for this order, so I had no choice but to call Lieferheld, cancel the order, and reorder – this time with the voucher code. The woman on the "Hero Hotline" (that's what they call their customer service hotline) was very friendly, called the delivery service for me, informed them of the error, and I was able to reorder immediately. I had my money back within 30 minutes, and I actually only received one delivery – neither duplicates nor missing anything (I've experienced both before… ;-)). So, thumbs up again for Lieferheld, the delivery service (and PayPal).
