Crispy chicken glazed in a sweet and savoury honey sauce. The chicken is tender and not greasy. The honey makes it a little sticky but the sweetness makes this dish pop γ$6
Portionβs hefty but itβs a mixed experience. Noodles came with that distinct alkaline bite and the fried wanton skinβs a touch bitter. The char siewβs a bit too fatty for my taste and I missed that satisfying snap from a crispy fish sausage β this soft fish sausage didnβt cut it but the soup wanton were the saving grace. Plump, juicy and packed with meat. Bonus points for the flavourful soup with radish and stuffed wanton made it a comforting add-on.

The noodles had a great chew, soaking up the tamarind sauce beautifully. The pork slices were delicately soft, pairing well with the crunch from crushed peanuts and bean sprouts.
A squeeze of lime brightened up the flavours, making for a simple and enjoyable meal γ$6.50
The broth is mildly tangy with a gentle heat, delivering creaminess but missing the bold depth of a standout tom yum. Comes with standard noodles, prawns, squid, crab stick and egg.
Overall, itβs alright for a quick fix. Nothing extraordinary but it gets the job done γ$7
Thin rice noodles stir-fried with egg, chicken and beansprouts for some crunch. Like most pad thai, the noodles were slightly sweet but the lime kept the flavours well balanced. Sweet, savoury and nutty all in one bite γ$6.80
Minced pork fried with plenty of chilli and basil, topped with a standard fried egg and rice. The basil pork was not too spicy and I love that runny egg yolk γ$8
Flavours are bold but the saltiness stands out a little too much. The noodles soak up the mildly spicy sauce, with squid and prawns bringing a seafood punch. Fresh veggies and a squeeze of lime help balance things but the saltiness might be a bit much for some γ$11.90
A well-balanced bowl packed with rich, slightly herbal broth that isnβt too heavy. The tender, juicy chicken slices soak up the flavours beautifully while the chicken balls added a nice bite for variety. The rice noodles had a perfect springy texture and soaked up all the flavourful broth beautifully. The addition of fresh kang kong gave a light crunch and an earthy freshness that helped balance out the richness. A sprinkle of chilli flakes gives it a nice little extra punch γ$8.50
The broth has that classic Thai kick β spicy, tangy, and full of depth without feeling too heavy. Itβs generously topped with seafood such as tiger prawn, tender squid, a mussel and juicy tomatoes that bring a nice pop of freshness. The rice noodles are perfectly soft and soak up every bit of that flavourful broth γ$11.90
The basil pork with rice is a no-frills kind of dish that hits the spot. The minced pork is stir-fried with basil, long bean and chilli, packing a nice kick of spice and aroma, while the rice pairs perfectly with all those rich flavours. Served with a fried egg and cracker. Itβs simple, satisfying, and hard to go wrong with.
The tom yum soup leans more spicy than sour. Itβs packed with lemongrass and a good portion of ingredients, making it hearty enough to feel like a meal on its own. Whatβs even better? They offer a great value-for-money set that includes the a drink. Itβs simple, flavourful, and budget-friendly

Basil Pork with Rice, Tom Yum Soup & Thai Milk Tea
Tasty and authentic Thai food at affordable prices. Iβm glad that the food quality and taste remained consistently good over the years.
The fresh steamed grouper was drenched in an appetizing and tangy broth made with fresh lime juice, garlic and chillies. I like how it is sour, spicy and garlicky yet remains well-balanced in taste.
The prawns served in the green curry were fresh, accompanied by sting beans, pea eggplant and chillies. It was fragrant, thick and flavourful with subtle spiciness and richness from the coconut milk.
The deep-fried chicken was fried till golden brown, crispy on the outside and juicy inside then topped with crispy bits of garlic on top.

Fried rice topped with a crispy omelette with silver fish and chunks of crab meat. Other than the rice being a little oily, the omelette was done quite well.

I'm in a relationship with food. Why can't we just declare our never ending love and vows towards some food item? I'm sure that would not result in divorces.
