Sabai

Have prawn crackers with a BBQ-like dip to munch on while waiting for the rest of the dinner group to arrive. Very additive as all of us clean the plates. Want to ask for refill but no one dare to ask. Iced water is served while we decided whether to order drinks or not. Ordered lime juice with some kind of flower $6.50. Taste like normal lime juice but is purple in colour.
Order Special Set Menu (B) @ $55.00 ++ Per Person (Minimum 5 persons)
Sorry no picture taken as most of us were too happily attacking our food and I was too busy explaining the food.

Appetizers
Khao Tang Naa Tang
Crispy rice crackers served with minced chicken and minced prawns simmered in coconut cream
The dip is very unique, sweet and hot. Unexpected.

Yam Mamuang
Spicy green mango salad with prawns, chicken, roasted coconut, ground peanuts and sweet sauce
This is sweet and crunchy.

Peek Gai Sod Sai
Deep fried stuffed chicken wings
Everyone like this very much. Stuffed with minced chicken in the boneless chicken wing.

Soup
Tom Yam Goong
Spicy Seafood Soup
Very very spicy and sour. Do not get fool by the clear soup with not a bit of redness. Got alot of seafood like prawns, sotong and fish, plus straw mushrooms.

(If you cannot take spicy soup, remember to replace it with clear chicken soup which also very nice)

Main Dishes
Gwio Warn Bpet Yang Pollamai
Green roast duck curry with coconut cream, sweet basil leaves, and fresh fruits in season
Got big lychees and small circles of pineapples with cubes of the duck.

Gung Hoern Sabai
Deep fried garlic prawns wrapped in egg nets
Beware the prawn's head when eating. The whole prawn is covered in a thin brown batter. One may just take the whole prawn in a big mouthful.

Pla Neung Mauno
Deep fried boneless garoupa topped with spicy and sour sauce.
Very cruchy and fresh fish.

Pahd Plakem Pak
Stirfried salted fish with kailan
Crunchy vegetables.

Also have addition orders of
prawn cakes which is very crunchy of prawns and crispy,
thai fish cakes which very spicy but tasted sweet when eaten with its special chilli sauce,
phai thai , fried noodle with peanuts, accompanied with fresh bean sprouts and chives which I am too full to try but smell nice.

Dessert
Kanom Ruam & Pollamai Ruam
Assorted Thai cakes of the day & Mixed seasonal fruits at the buffet corner
By the time we could attack the dessert, most of us were too full. I have the hot tapioca in coconut milk. Very thick and sweet. The tapioca is not hard at the all, unlike the normal hard version which is commonly found in most dessert stores. The water chestnut jelly is full of crunchiness from the chopped water chestnut. There is also red-coloured spiced sugar for fruit to dip with. Also tried layered kueh (similar to 9-layered kueh but not so colourful) which very soft.

Overall service is really good. Iced water is always refilled and plate is changed without been asked. Would like to go again to try all the dessert but real exp.
