this makan place is an authentic thai eatery... known as "TUK TUK" Thai Kitchen, location is no.135/137 east coast road.. it's near the the junction of east coast road and joo chiat road.. diagonally opp katong mall.. we had a hard time finding parking lots.. ended parking some 400metres away from the shop.. this thai eatery shop offers valet parking if you wan convenience.. outside the shop there's this Tuk Tuk cab on display..
The shop was fully packed but lucky my sis called to book table for 11 pax...
The waiter and waitress are all thai nationals (but i did see a guy who looks like indian, mayb he's a thai).. the cooks in the kitchen are thais too... owner is a singaporean guy with thai wife.. frankly speaking, had not tasted such authentic thai food in sg.. the bill came to $220 for 11 pax.. not that expensive la.. we had pineapple rice, fried rice, white rice, 2 garoupa fish, 3 pots of crab tang hoon (vermicelli), 2 plates of papaya salad (very yummy), 2 plates of deep fried chicken in pandan leaves, 3 pots of tomyum seafood, 1 plate of fried long beans, 1 plate of prawn omelette, 1 plate of hot plate black pepper beef (yummy too). for desserts we had - 3 plates of tapoica with coconut milk, 3 bowls of red rubby, 2 plates of mango with sticky rice, 10 pcs of coconut jellly with waterchestnut and corn... i can only remember these dishes, but i think should be more or less llike that la.. i dun mind going again.... wahaha.....
This is the place
Nice tuk tuk.. wonder if such tuk tuk still exists in bangkok? had taken tuk tuk in phuket recently, but not sure abt bangkok...
tom yum seafood. perfect sour and spicy soup, but the prawn not very good
we had 2 deep fried garoupa, one with chilli sauce one without. i ate the head of both garoupa. if i'm right, the price of each garoupa is $15/=
tang hoon with crab.. the tang hoon taste yummy, i didn't eat the crab as i had them the day before, so can't take too much.. high cholestrol.. from the look of it, definitely more worthwhile then the CRAP beehoon i had the previous nite. if not wrong, each pot of crab beehoon cost $15/=..
i don't fancy the thai sour salad, but i must say this papaya salad taste real yummy...
there are 3 different kinda chilli sauce, the one on top is my favourite....
desserts time - coconut jelly with water chestnut and corn in it..
desserts time - mango with sticky rice.. i didn't take this as i was quite full liao.. the rice is actually glutinous rice...
finally, cheese cake with mini oreo, my sis bought for my nehpew.. stomach kinda gonna explode liao, so didn't eat the cake..
