Showing places for "Thai"

Enjoyment At Enjoy ‘Upgrade’ from usual tze char establishment, Enjoy has a good variety of options to choose from. I enjoyed (no pun intended!) everything we ordered, in particular this rich otah stuffed with lots of seafood, just look at the size of this otah. The grandma te-kah bee hoon was my other favourite. Can taste the wok-hei and also the pork was well marinated, no ‘porky’ smell and went well with the vermicelli. I wouldn’t mind coming back to fish items and more appetizers on the menu. Service was prompt as well and the old school vibes of the place went really well with the type of food served. Really worth it meal with Burpple Beyond. Paid 60 plus for 5 mains and 2 drinks.

Ugly Cabbage In Fish Sauce 10.8++(used Beyond) Cabbage was very well Fried, and the dish had a sweet profile with some wok hei. It wasnt as funky as it smelled, and was easy to love for everyone P. S. btw portions are pretty generous. One main, one carb and one veggie filled up two very hungry guys

Claypot Tang Hoon 17.8++ Tanghoon had a pleasant texture and the whole bowl had such a clean taste, with sweet umami from the prawns without being too oily at all. Even though it's considered light tasting, it definitely stands on its own and i keep finishing my own portion before i think to ladle some gravy over it. Seemingly simple but addictively delicious

Great Tasting - Value For Money The dishes here are really worth it, Big portions good for sharing. Friendly staff and good excellent service provided!

Mixed Beef And Pork Boat Noodles ($9.90) This was part of the BB set where we got a main, an appetiser/side dish and a drink at one for one! The Thai boat noodles were flavourful, but I wish there was more soup as the noodles seemed to soak up the soup really fast. The pork slices were tender but the pork ball was not chewy enough and could be improved. For the appetisers, I’d recommended getting the Moo Ping (sweet chicken on skewers)! Although there are only 3 sticks, they are highly delicious 🤤

Generous portion The soup for the beef boat noodle was thick and good, the portion for the side dishes were generous. The prawn omelette was good but the fried chicken was a little dry. $24 for everything

Generous Portions. Ordered a beef truffle pad thai and a chicken laksa. Both were generous portions n really tasty. Nice cosy location in the corner of Orchard Central. Friendly service staff. Definitely deserves a visit.

Morning Glory Got the Stir Fry Morning Glory which was decent, but rather pricey given that the portion wasn’t huge.

Wok Fried Beef Honestly, I had my reservations about this restaurant because it looked pretty empty when I was there (a very singaporean way of judging whether a restaurant is good or not, I know). But decided that there’s was no harm in trying, plus, I’ve got Burpple Beyond 1-1 so there was nothing to lose. The Wok Fried Beef was surprisingly fragrant and tasty, goes well with a plate of rice for a simple meal!⁣

Bean Sprouts with Salted Fish ($8) (Part 3 of 3) Bean sprouts were very saucy and surprisingly flavourful. They remained their crunchy texture, with bits of spring onion, sliced red chili and silver fish throughout.

Basil Chicken with Kai Lan ($8++) (Part 2 of 3) (Unfortunately, they missed out this order :/) As the entire basil leaves are used, there's a strong bitter earthy flavour permeating throughout the dish which may not appeal to everyone. The dish I had had parts which were spicier than others. I liked that the kai lan retained a nice crunch and that the bits of chicken were surprisingly tender.

Half Chicken ($16++) (Part 1 of 3) I honestly feel that this tastes like a typical kampong chicken with a slight gamey taste permeating throughout the meat. Not the most tender nor moist but its still delicious, not as oily as your typical Singapore Hainanese chicken. I like how it was made boneless, decent portion for 2 pax.

Red Tom Yum Noodle $8.90 We intend not to go for their mama dish as we think we can execute that dish at home.😆👨‍🍳 (ok, we are exaggerated here but you know when we go out, we always consider the value of dish) The Red Tom Yum Noodle is rather similar (the difference is the thin flat noodle). We are slightly let down by quality of ingredients: 2 prawns, 2 squid rings and 2 clams can’t rescue us here. 😔 . The mineral water is $1.50 (1 bottle come with 1 glass for 2 persons). This shows that the service is not considerate. We notice that Soi 19 Wanton mee just move next door(not sure if it’s the same chain) but Tomyum mama will have to do more to keep up with warranting customer return. 🤓

Basil Leaf Meat With Rice & Egg (Wagyu Beef) $9.90 We go lush for this dish and pick Wagyu beef. The beef comes tender and covered with sauce and chopped beans. The fried egg is proper with crusty rim and runny center. The stir fried basil dish (no matter which meat) is flavourful and rarely would we be disappointed with their rice dish. 🍛

Minced Pork Omelette (3/5⭐) Minced Pork Omelette ($8.5) The omelette tastes just like....an omelette. Nothing special. It's good though, really good and savory, the pork bits also tastes great inside the omelette, but for $8.5 I expect something more than a normal omelette.

[Chalerm Thai] - Phad Thai King ($14). I like that it wasn't too highly flavoured with sauces and seasonings like some others, and the rice noodles were springy but pliable. .

New Centrally Located Thai Eatery That‘s Worth Checking Out When The Craving Hits H O S T E D Located in the Arcade adjacent to the Capitol Kempinski Hotel are a few new restaurants serving different types of cuisine. Managed by the hotel itself, they range from German to Italian to Spanish and Thai. “Chalerm Thai” is the one my friend Zhenia and I had lunch at earlier this week. We began the meal with three appetisers that were spot-on in whetting our appetites as they did not lack in punchiness. While Zhenia went gaga over the Deep-fried Lemongrass Chicken Wings ($15++ for 6 pcs), I was most drawn to the tender, smoky Grilled Marinated Pork Neck with Spicy Lime Sauce (18++). The both of us also did a fine job of demolishing the Prawn Salad ($15++), hands-down, the spiciest of these three dishes. I had requested for a clear version of Chalerm's Tom Yum Goong ($15++) because I had heard from another friend Maurice it’s very good. The Chef-in-charge who’s Thai, kindly obliged and I was very pleased because Maurice was right - theirs is intensely fragrant and packs a strong kick of hotness despite looking rather “innocent”. We thought the Phat Thai Kung ($14++) was decent enough, ticking all the required boxes but the item that made us sit up and gawk was the signature Stirfried Soft Shell Crab with Yellow Curry ($20++). Its flamboyantly vibrant colours belied a less-than-fiery taste, so no tastebuds were singed. Its surprising low-level spiciness allowed us to better appreciate the nuances in the thick curry sauce as well. For dessert, we had the Thai Red Ruby ($8++) and everyone's forever favourite, the Mango with Sticky Rice ($10++). The former, in my opinion, is a notch above many others because their version comes with a scoop of fabulous coconut ice-cream that’s made in-house at the Capitol Kempinski. Undoubtedly more substantial, the latter which is served with warm glutinous rice, is big enough to be shared between two or even three depending on the size of each person’s appetite (or greed 😁).

Phat Thai Kung from Chalerm Thai, new at Arcade @ Capitol Kempinski. It is one of the classics at this restaurant and I’ll share my thoughts about it in my Weets Eats column on Thursday. Anyway, about the phat thai kung - well, it’s very pretty.

Good pasta, poor service, sweaty lunch We got their seafood squid ink pasta and their bacon carbonara. The pasta had good texture and was cooked to a perfect al-dente. The squid ink pasta came with fresh mussels, prawns and squid and was pretty good. The carbonara was quite perfect with the creamy pasta base and savoury bacon bits. Food wise, not a bad pasta fix, however, be prepared to... SWEAT! The restaurant is barely air-conditioned. For $15++ a pasta and $20++ a main, this is pretty unbearable. Come only if you have Burpple Beyond, if not, it is not worth it. The service was also disappointing, with the waitress serving us seeming aloof and disinterested in life in general. Overall, its a one and done for us.

Chicken Masala And Saag Chicken ($12 Each) Bar bar black sheep is more of a drinking place that’s tucked in Cluny Court next to Botanic Gardens mrt, but I came here for lunch and it was not bad. It’s nothing super outstanding, but it’s quite a value for money meal when you use #burpplebeyond. I preferred the saag chicken, which is a spinach-based gravy, because it tasted somewhat “cleaner” and less meaty. The masala was a lot more full-bodied and had more spices. It’s great to pair with some naans to mop all that gravy up!

Really Hard Ribeye... How can this be even medium rare.. even if using app for 1 for 1 promo, it still doesn't justify the poor quality, the beef is fully well done to the max, even the western food stall below my HDB block cooks a better medium rare ribeye.

Tom Yum Claypot Went here on a weekday and got the lunch set. Chicken tom yum lunch set costs $9.90 and comes with a drink of your choice. One of the best tom yum I’ve ever had. Tastes good especially with the sunny side up egg inside. Somehow it also feels like eating home cooked food. Love it and will be back!

Tom Yum (+2nett) Pork Porridge 8.9nett Price was very well justified due to the generous amount of ingredients, including 2 incredibly tender pieces of pork ribs which were large as well. Other than that, the well Marinated Minced Pork and the numerous pork balls were nice as well. Radish was really out of place, both in shape and in taste, while the pearl onions were appreciates as they brough bursts of refreshing umami. Tom yum Base wasnt spicy but certainly wasnt mild either. Overall a really comforting dish and while nothing too crazy, it's highly recommended

Not So Crispy Pork Belly Finally tried the pork belly on the third visit but alas it didn't live up to expectations. Wasn't crispy and was just normal..

Beef Pad Thai Incredibly awesome pad thai! The portion of beef strips were pretty generous - juicy and tender (so thankful it wasnt overcooked despite being pretty thinly sliced!) I love the assortment of sides - fried onions, raw onions, chili padi, peanuts which accompanied the pad thai! Carbs-to-protein ratio was close to 1-1, cos the lil' pile is not just cards but well mixed with pretty generous amount of tofu (protein right!!)

Green 🐓 Curry Decent Thai green curry but “not the best”- feedback from the boyf who has a more refined tongue and expectations for Thai food. My inexperienced tongue finds it pretty okay! Only gripe would be the chicken - while the meat was pretty tender, it came with a layer of significantly thick skin that kinda turned me off when I tried to peel the chicken skin off the meat!

Green Curry With Prawns 18.9++ Depending on the choice of meat the price could vary Unfortunately this was way too sweet from the coconut cream and overly creamy as well, to the point where we can barely taste anything else.

reasonably priced thai Located in an industrial estate, Soi 47’s second outlet is located near Lavender/ Bendemeer. With most of its dishes priced below $10 and Thai chefs, Soi 47 promises an authentic experience. We ordered the cashew chicken ($6.80) which came in a sweet-sour sauce, capsicums and onions. I found the batter a bit thick and fat, but the dish was certainly flavourful and fulfilling! The tom khai ($6.80) was much thinner than expected, with little coconut milk. It was however generous with its seafood - containing prawns, mussels, squid and some battered fish. We ordered the ice thai milk tea ($3) and ice lemongrass ($2.50). Similarly found the drinks diluted and a tad too sweet. The meal was definitely made worthwhile with burpple beyond’s 1-for-1 main dish & drink!

Yummy Tang Hoon You can’t go wrong when you dine at Soi 47. Decent place with decent food & services + decent prices Especially love ❤️ the tang hoon 😀

Green Chicken Curry A generous serving of curry and best served over a bowl of piping hot rice. The ingredients are generous as well, with pieces of chicken and green beans. I highly recommend taking each spoonful with the thai basil leaves as it adds so much freshness in flavor. Although super creamy and savory, I wished that there was more spice in the gravy.
