Nipa Hut, Mitcham by Bureaucrat

For a late Sunday lunch on Mitcham shopping strip means that sometimes you gotta make do with what's available to you.  Faced with a choice of a plastic sandwich roll from how-on-Earth-can-this-be-called-bread Subway and Nipa Hut, a Thai/Filipino eatery, the decision was easy.  A cheerful mom and pop shop, Nipa Hut has more than its fair share of local fans getting takeaway and dining in.

Nipa Hut, Mitcham, vegetarian, pad thai
With less than 30 minutes to have lunch, Beaker and I opted for takeaway, which we wolfed down standing in the street, while waiting for our ride from friends.  Beaker ordered the vegetarian pad Thai ($12.90) which was loaded with lots of crisp vegs, tofu and egg.

Nipa Hut, Mitcham, basil chicken, rice
I went for a lunch special, stir fried chicken with Thai basil on rice ($10.90).  It was great value and quite tasty.  A big bowl of fluffy rice, lots of chicken breast, crisp veg and a lovely fried egg on top. I really liked the savoury gravy.  I'd definitely order this again.

Verdict

We loved it
We loved it.

Overall

While we only had a fleeting moment to savour the dishes at Nipa Hut, I definitely wouldn't mind heading out to Mitcham to properly peruse the menu and try something else - especially the Filipino dishes.
