Complete your meal with milk tea. Liked that it was not crazy sweet, though I requested for ice to dilute it a bit more.
Hard to go wrong with this especially when the mango’s ripe and sweet (which thankfully was the case).
Looks rather pale but this was actually quite tasty. Though I would have preferred a punchier dressing, this was still a good starter for sharing to get the juices flowing. Use the lettuce leaves as a cup to create meat parcels.

Imagine green curry paste infused into wok-fried rice. Sounds like a good idea right? Tastes even better! No wonder fellow Burppler Jackson Sim always orders this!
Tasty, moreish deep-fried goodness with a well-balanced chilli dip. Order this pronto!
Wanted to try a soupy dish and was recommended this.
It comes with a good amount of pork belly shabu shabu slices, minced meat and pork balls, as well as (a bit lao hong) crackling and lard bits. Such a shame the broth lacked depth of flavour.
Available soup/dry, my dining companion opted for the latter. Unfortunately, we both thought that this was a miss especially with the overcooked noodles and seasoning that lacked a punch.
Another supposed foolproof choice, but a stronger garlic fragrance would have been nice. While not super juicy, the pieces of pork were tender enough.
The set comes with two spring rolls and a tapioca dessert. The former were forgettable but I like how the tapioca wasn't cloyingly sweet. You can also choose to add on a serving of Tom Yum Fish Soup to your set for $2.50, which we did and regretted after biting into over-fried fish fillets (it was almost as if we were biting into pure batter).
If you don't want the frills, it's priced $7.90 ($8.90 with egg) from the a la carte menu.
Instead of ordering Pandan Leaf Chicken, Thai Fish Cake and Mini Spring Rolls separately, sample all three at once with this platter.
The spring rolls were rather unimpressive, filled with mostly shredded cabbage without much seasoning.
The Thai fish cakes fared better, but didn't seem like the homemade type. The pandan leaf chicken was the tastiest, with tender (albeit tiny) chicken chunks marinated in green curry-like blend of spices.
Hard to get this wrong so if you don't want any surprises, this would be a good option. Like most Thai curries, this was on the sweet side. Portion may look small but the creamy broth came with a good amount of chicken slices and soft pieces of eggplant, and was actually filling.
Note that the default comes with egg (not the oozy sunny side up sort), so if you don't want the add-on, do let them know when you order.
Foolproof finale of sweet mango slices lolling over the top of a glutinous rice mound with a coconut milk drizzle.
But yes, more carbs. Unless you're a big eater, a 2-course meal is probably more than enough. Though if you're a durian lover, then you can't leave without trying the legit Durian Ice Cream (with Sesame Wafer). It's sooo goood!
Quite possibly the highlight of this meal: rich and punchy coconut milk and turmeric curry with well, mashed prawns. It sounds potentially cloying, but the lemongrass and gingers helped to keep the full-bodied sauce balanced. And the prawns weren't smashed to oblivion, so there's still a lovely bite once in a while.
Make sure you pluck the basil leaves, mix that heavenly sauce with the chopped snake beans, pickled celery, bean sprouts and rice noodles thoroughly, then slurp, slurp, slurp!
