Used to remember this place as one of the affordable tze char price Thai Cuisine (pretty authentic), but somehow the standard seemed to drop...
I don’t rmb the dishes are this spicy previously but this round, even myself also almost cannot hold it, finished the dishes, walked out of the restaurant with sausage lips and burning stomach...=X
For ppl who can’t take spicy food, can skip all the above dishes... These dishes just leave one with that spicy burning sensation after eating (more spicy than your McSpicy), you ownself judge if you can bear with it or not (my fren broke into sweats).....enuff emphasis on how spicy this round was but ya okay, food review...
Basil chicken gave a distinct basil taste and a little too oily, great to go with white rice...
Kang Kong is a little too oily, not really fantastic...
The tang hoon, too, a little oily, otherwise, would be great since they are quite generous with their seafood...
Tom Yum Seafood Soup is both sour and spicy, quite shiok to drink this and again, they are quite generous with their ingredients, but, this round is just too spicy already lah...
Thai Milk tea is quite authentic, quite sweet though, as for the lemongrass drink, for some reason, got a hint of barley, not quite sure why...
All in all, for those who wanna challenge themselves in terms of the spiciness, can go try! Or you can try to ask the staff if they can reduce the spiciness not...
Damage: $40 (in total)
Not a fan of pad thai but my parents loved this dish. They said there was a balance in savoury and sweetness, and it was sufficiently wet without being too oily. I felt that the noodles were cooked nicely, coated well with the sauce but retaining a bite.
What made this dish different was that the tempura cereal batter contained hints of coconut, which added an interesting and delectable nuttiness to the dish. Could be less salty though! But definitely worth a try.
Best pandan chicken in Singapore!!! Extremely juicy chicken, packed with spices like lemongrass, galangal and IDK WHAT MAGIC
Decent! Sufficient basil is used so that every bite of pork is packed with the fragrance of the herb, yet not overpowering the entire dish. Very well balanced, which is often not achieved in Thai dishes found in Singapore
I really enjoy clear Tom yum soup, especially the one at first Thai. I feel like good clear Tom yum soup is a paradox, extremely light in taste but very intense in flavour.
