Not the best environment to dine at, but had been quite into this item from the Thai food stall within Food District at Peace Centre these days. Whilst having tried many versions and only the one at Thai Jing Jing stood out all these while, the version at Food District was one that I also utterly enjoyed after discovering it recently.

Despite the entire dish being a little dry for the lack of sauce throughout, the Thai Deep-Fried Garlic Pork was delicious — crisp, fried chunks of pork that comes with fried bits of chopped up garlic that induces that intense garlicky note (the reason why I love this so much) which matches so well with the savoury pieces of pork whilst giving a crunch; the pork also not carrying a porky stench nor requiring much effort to chew. Fried egg can be a little inconsistent; some days fully cooked with a yolk that's all solid while some days still oozy, though I find the strips of almost raw carrot the most annoying; wished it was at least cooked or pickled. Nonetheless, this solves those cravings for a good Thai Deep-Fried Garlic Pork Rice; works great for those who really enjoy garlicky dishes (e.g. like me)!
