3 out of 5
Knutsford Terrace is the LKF of Tsim Sha Tsui with restaurants & bars lined up in this small alley. Touch of Spice is a nice little restaurant over here.
Located on the first floor, of a narrow lane, you would not go to this place for views. But its a well decorated restaurant which goes in sync with the cuisine.
Despite having a reservation, we were seated after 25 mins, but the receptionist was gracious enough to offer us a separate vegetarian menu and help us by taking the orders, so that as soon we got our table, the food was ready.
The vegetarian menu has lots of options and is well explained. Its more of a Thai restaurant with few Vietnamese appetizers thrown in.
Rice Paper Roll - One of the few vegetarian options , one can have in the Vietnamese cuisine and it tasted good. An eight pieces portion, enough for a group of 4. Had a nice tangy taste with fillings of papaya and mango.
Pad Thai - Normally its hard to find spicy Thai food in Hong Kong but to eat a sweet pad tai was sacrilegious. It was not total disaster , the texture was good, but I have had better pad tais in Hong Kong.

Green Curry - Green curry was amongst the finest I have had. Its not very spicy but it suited me well since I don't eat extremely spicy food. The best part was that you could customize your green curry with a choice of 6 vegetables & also get a bowl of extra curry for 20$. I found it very convenient and practical.
Bean Curd with Chili & Coconut Gravy - This was basically fried tofu in a Thai Red Curry paste. Eventually it tasted like Green curry but a little spicier but Tofu was bit under cooked from inside.
The young coconut was fresh and refreshing but Virgin Mojito tasted like an ordinary lime soda drink.
Good food, in a convenient location with nice service.
Has a repeat value only because of wide vegetarian options.
