Bali Thai (Takashimaya)

There's a Bali Thai outlet situated among the hair salons and aesthetic clinics. It's very spacious, well lit with pretty furnishings. I highly recommend it for big groups or dinner dates.

Yes, there are halal food options around Orchard Road, but they haven't changed much in the past few years and it's getting boring. Most of the food outlets are chains that you can find all over Singapore. The ones that are unique to this area are the legendary Puncak and Cahaya at Far East Plaza. I really wish they would expand their seating areas to accommodate more people during peak hours.

It's definitely salty, sour and fizzy. If you're familiar with the small grey Pikin plum tablet candies (which I love!!!), this tastes exactly like that. Because of the saltiness, this actually makes a nice appetizer.

Drink from the rim if you've got a high sodium tolerance. Yeah that's salt, not sugar. I checked. 😝

The soups come in two sizes, a bowl or pot size. We shared a bowl which is just enough for 2 persons.

There's mussel, prawn, some squid and mushrooms. Gloriously spicy and served hot. I've had their tom yum soup a few times and it's always more on the sour side, but tasty nonetheless.

Sweet and sour chicken with a fried egg. Delicious as usual, and I had to resist ordering more.
