: : Bangkok Thai : :

Last night, as mentioned earlier somewhere in this blog, I attended a friend’s farewell dinner at Kuching’s famous Bangkok Thai restaurant at Pending. This restaurant boasts it’s own chef from Thailand so you will definitely have the Thai touch to all the dishes that are served at the restaurant. Although, at times, the dishes might taste differently as it has been slightly altered to cater for the local tastebuds.

I didn’t managed to take a picture of the yam basket that was served as the 1st dish. It’s basically sweetened yam deep fried in crispy batter. The yam is shaped into a basket first before frying. Then, mixed vegetables are cooked separately and poured into the middle of this basket.

Not sure what was this dish and the organizer also forgot the name. We all contributed the money beforehand and didn’t get to see the menu. All I can say that it was a great Thai dish with this sweetened sauce cooked with chillis and onions poured over some crispy fried chicken. Yummy!

This is definitely a Chinese dish. The mushrooms are Oyster Mushroom which were cooked until they were tender and hot. Wah! Delicious!

What is a Thai meal without the famous Tom Yam Gung! Cooked with loads of seafood and spicy spices, it was a great body warmer when one is sitting directly underneath the aircon duct!

I love this dish a lot! It’s Vietnamese prawn with some deep fried pau @ fluffy white buns. Huge freshwater prawns was used and everyone had enough to a filling bite. Yum! Gravy was great too!

Well, the fish was baked and came out a bit burnt as well. Urgh! Could taste the burnt flesh in the white fish flesh. Until we took the portion underneath. It was so much better than the one at the top! Probably that’s the reason for the covering of deep fried chopped garlic on top : hide the evidence of bad cooking! Haha!

The restaurant screwed up our order by giving someone else our pineapple fried rice. So, we settled for some olive fried rice instead. Had to wait at least 15-20 minutes for it to come out but it was worth it. Instead of using olives from Italy, they used the local variety called dabai. Tasted really good.

Finally, we had our desserts of yam cake, layered cake, tapioca with thickened coconut cream and little squares of pandan leave with coconut jelly and waterchestnut.

Oh yes, we Malaysians are worst than piranhas when it comes to eating. Nothing from the fish bone lived to tell the tale.

: : Yo Ramly! : :

I had a good laugh reading this article from Roy’s posting. Who would have thought that Singaporeans would be so desperate for the taste of Ramly Burger that it is now brought into the island illegally? Here is a link to a step-by-step instructions.

Sad to say, I don’t think I’ve ever eaten a Ramly Burger before. Eating roadside stall burgers is the diarrhoa version of Russian Roulette. However, one can buy frozen Ramly Burger packs in the local supermarket in Malaysia.
