Land of Smiles

Thailand is Cambodia's neighbor to the West, and this forum is dedicated to Thai news, stories, reviews, blogs, videos, Thai people and anything else related to the country. A lot of expats have both lived and worked in Cambodia and Thailand, and this area is a place to discuss all aspects of life in Thailand and what's going on there. Most topics are about Bangkok and Pattaya because of their larger populations of expatriates and tourists in those cities, but this is for all things Thai.

On Thursday I visited this restaurant in Tiong Bahru for the first time

Image

Image

Love this, not available in Thailand
Image

Signature prawn dish, I found it to be so-so, nothing special
Image

Veggie, this is nice
Image

Another signature dish is this chicken, I do enjoy this dish very much
Image

Pepper crab (forgot to take photo of the dish), its not bad
Image

Finally Hokkien fried noodle, looks good but a bit on the sweet side and there's no lard (what a waste)
