What is popular here?
Green Curry Gelato & Sticky Rice [$8.80]
Riding on both novelty & word-of-mouth, the Green Curry gelato is acceptable, but not exactly delectable as well.
Meanwhile, other ice-cream flavours Palm Sugar and Tom Yum sit on opposite ends of the spectrum; the former being quite delicious, the latter being something straight out of a camp forfeit.
Other disappointing desserts include Thai Tea Molten Lava Cake, which sounds great but came out dry.
What should I try instead?
Phat Thai Kung [$13.80]
Immediately tasty upon first bite, the well-soaked vermicelli in garlic & prawn broth was one of my favourites.
Stir-Fried Squid & Runny Salted Egg [$14.80]
This crowd-pleaser consists of tender squid doused with emphatic salted egg gravy, thickened by pieces of egg white. A notch or two above other salted egg paste dishes out there.
