I have been going to Spice Thai Cuisine since they opened. We have birthday parties there and have celebrated New Year’s Eve at Spice for the last 3 years.

A year ago, my mom Rose had a stroke and was at Kessler Rehab in West Orange for 2 months. The first thing she did as she recovered was to get someone to call Roj, the owner of Spice, to have some food delivered. At first he didn’t know who it was that was calling, but Roj and I eventually figured out that it was my mother. She never returned home, but went to live in California with my sister. Every time I called, she would ask “Did you go to Spice?”. She truly loves the food there.

It’s now been a year and she was finally able to visit us in New Jersey. Guess where we took her first?

You have it! The best food place around, beautiful flowers and great service — no, great family. You feel like you’re at home.

Roj, thank you for making me and my mom very happy, with great food and company. Please open a restaurant in California.
