had 7pax family dinner at patara tanglin mall this evening on 12.1.2018. ^^

my impression was long time not come here…but actually when i looked up, in fact we had a poor 2pax dinner here on 17.2.2017.

this time in fact it was very good food…love it!

they no longer served the pot of tomyam soup, so we ordered just 2 tomyam talay S$12, a clear & a original…for this place, the original always better, much more flavourful..

pomelo salad was good & refreshing, maybe 4 pieces of medium prawns..

everyone loved the prawn curry, really fragrant & flavourful…

we ended up ordering like 5 white rice at S$3 each. curry was just so good!

the squid in salted egg sauce didn’t sound very thai..not the usual xi char preparation..and this pretty good on its own!

red duck curry always our favourite..

nearly as good as the prawn curry..

usual we take green curry chicken. this evening we took beef.

we didn’t think the flavours went/combined very well. beef was tenderised but a bit too beefy/strong..didn’t go with the curry..

the australian sirloin was very good…

tender, chargrilled very well & medium rare, and nice beef sauce.

the lamb rack was excellent too…

most like the lamb even more than the beef..i do too!

the olive rice was still good.

everyone thought the serving ahd shrunk a lot.

daughter had this entertainer app thing. we could get 3 main courses free.

so dinner was $217nett after three 1 for 1 main courses from entertainment app. pretty good!
