| - I've been here twice in the last 3 months - both times for a tasting menu - and it was amazing! the first time I came was for their 10th anniversary tasting menu which consisted of: dragronfruit salad with shredded crabmeat (Amazing pairing and flavours), sashimi plate - scallop, large sweet shrimp and a special roll with spicy sauce and salmon on top, deep fried shrimp head (leftover from the sashimi plate and deepfried - it was SO delicious!), seafood stew, beef brisket curry with naan. That was back in December and the meal was amazingly tasty and delicious.
This past Easter weekend, I brought my in laws here for a meal since my SIL was in town. They asked us what our budget was and what types of foods we liked, so here are the menu items listed below:
Miang kham - it had a lot of different toppings to go with the green leaves (it's a type of Thai leaf that's traditionally used to serve this appetizer with). The toppings go onto the leaves and you wrap them up and eat them :) super cute, and SUPER DELICIOUS. The toppings included shallots, chopped peanuts, small dried shrimp, roasted shredded coconut, lime (including peel), garlic, and red hot peppers. There's also the Miang kham sauce that goes with the dish as well - kinda sweet and a bit fishy but the best part is you can mix and match whichever toppings you want - we had a lot of fun eating this and I felt it was quite traditional in terms of authenticity of the dish.
Mango salad and satay chicken skewers - the mangoes had texture but enough sweetness at the same time, the dressing's tartness was perfectly balanced with the sweetness of the mango but the mango itself also had a bit of acidity to balance out which just made this salad taste great. The chicken skewers were perfectly cooked - it was dried out - very soft tender and moist and easy to bite into, and i felt the satay sauce that's already on it was enough to go with the skewer - it didn't overpower the flavour of the rub too much. Love the extra touch/finesse they did by presenting in a bamboo tray for each individual person :)
Sashimi platter - the platter consisted of salmon, octopus, scallop, large sweet shrimp, salmon roe on cucumber boats, tamago (sweet egg), red tuna, squid and albacore tuna. The platter was definitely a jaw dropping WOW - the presentation was beautiful. The picture speaks all. It was a lot of sashimi for the 5 of us lol... in fact after we finished this dish, we were getting worried about the latter courses coz we are starting to get full! but the portions were amazing. Fish was very fresh and beautifully cut, the shellfish were all very good quality as well!
Torched sushi and roll - we had squid and salmon torched sushi and also a roll with torched eel/fish. It could use a bit of sauce to help flavour the sushi better but the roll was very good. Overall I felt that the sushi and the roll were both really good!
Egg white wrapped dumpling - This dish is beautiful - I"m in awe of figuring how they make it! it's basically a thin layer of cooked egg white, held together by a piece of green onion, topped with tobiko (flyfish roe). Inside the dumpling there are diced vegetables and meat - delicious! and I love the presentation of this dish.
Seafood stew - this is basically a seafood version of the tom yum soup. I LOVE THE BROTH in this stew. It's loaded (as you can see from the pic) with clams, mussels, shrimp, and various types of mushrooms. It also came with a lime which i sprinkled on top, and best of all - it's served hot - with a little crystal cube inside and they lit it on so it kept the seafood soup/stew hot. This dish is freaking amazing :)
Deep fried shrimp heads - after the sashimi platter was done, they took the heads (we didn't eat them - just pulled the rest of the shrimp out and then ate the shrimp sashimi) they put some batter on and deep fried them. Excellent source of calcium there :) but the batter was very tasty. i took some home since we coudln't finish - heated in my airfryer and it was just as good as it was when it was freshly fried!
Thai curry beef brisket - this dish was also served hot with the crystal cube lit underneath :) the brisket was tender and moist - i don't normally like brisket, but THIS I WILL EAT lol. the curry was very tasty, hint of spice but it was very mild, and the curry was nice and rich - you can def. taste the coconut milk base and worked wonderfully with some freshly steamed rice :) Curry lovers - you should definitely try this!
at the end - since we were so stuffed, they served us some mini cupcakes - red velvet and chocolate flavours - they were quite rich, sweet, and delicous! perfect bite to end a pretty much perfect meal :)
