No.1 BEST tomyam in Town* Rak Thai Restoran
*according to the flyer.
Rak Thai has the BEST No. 1 Tom Yam in town(i'm guessing Petaling Jaya (PJ) or Klang Valley?)....
0_olets start...
Venue: Rak Thai Restoran, Amcorp Mall, PJ (Lower Ground)
Type of Food: Thai...With Burmese Waitresses. HAHA
Price: Ala Carte from RM10-RM25, Noodles and Rice Sets RM5-6, Drinks and Deserts below RM5.
Gluttons overall rating : 5/10 Gluttons food rating : 5/10 (NOT the best tomyam!)Gluttons ambiance rating : 6/10 (ok, they tried with the deco and music)Gluttons service rating :6/10 (ok, but not that good!)Ever since i had
that Mango Rice, which was
DIVINE (btw), I had t have some Thai Food...haha.
So i dragged my parents to eat at this place at Amcorp Mall (OK, i didn't know the existence of this shop, just walked by and thought it was interesting...)
We went in, greeted by "Sawadeekarp" by this (looks like) Thai waitress...She gave us our seats and our menu. We looked and looked, the food was quite expensive. HAHA. but the set meals were okay. like fried noodles and stuff.
So we ordered.
And, food came in like 10 minutes or so. Quite fast.
Mango Juice for RM3Thailand mar, so must drink mango juice
Fried Kailan for RM10.WAH so mahal!
but it was really nice. they cut the leaves into tiny bits and deep fried it...it was crunchy and salty(just the way i like it).
The No. 1 best tomyam in town!
I ordered Rice to go with it.
RM1 for the Rice. RM4 for the Tomyam soup.
It was OK. the portion was a bit small. Nothing much in the soup. Two prawns, a few sotongs and mushrooms.
Totally not worth it. hahahha.
AND NOT THE BEST IN TOWN, omg. I've tasted MUCH BETTER tom yums..
It wasn't even spicy.
urgh.
Rak Thai Exotic Cendol RM4.I've never liked cendol before, but people around me love cendol. and, even I don't see what is so exotic about it. Don't even have the nuts thingy that usually comes in Cendol.
Totally not worth it
Mango Sticky Rice Rm4.
The plate was SO SMALL.
The portions of pulut were SO LITTLE.
The mango was only HALF!
after i tried
this one, I will always compare all othe Mango Sticky Rice with
that one..
after being a glutton, we walked at the
Flea Market...
lovely junks that we just don't need, but want!:)
The end.

Thai Fair
Mango Rice at Hartamas Shopping Center's Thai Fair.
Venue: Hartamas Shopping Center (link) 60 Jalan Sri Hartamas 1, 50480 Kuala Lumpur
Tel: 03 6201 8353, Fax: 03 6201 3996
Type of food: Thai Food
Famous for its...er, mango rice (only cos its the only thing i ate).
Price: RM5-RM10
in a middle of a lazy sunday afternoon (after shopping at the
Shopaholics Unite Party).
Amelia and I went to Hartamas Shopping Center for a small little walk.
We were smelling something so yummy and hot.......we sniffed and sniffed and sniffed and....lo and behold, it was
TOM YAM (
ok, it wasn't that dramatic).
We saw this huge stall with loads of mangoes hanging around with
pulut rice, heaps and heaps of shredded papaya, chillies and onions. Mee Hoon galore with huge bowls of tomyam soups everywhere. (
this is not exaggerating at all)!
We saw the bundle of happiness (also fatness), the
pulut rice with thick succulent mangoes and creamy coconut sauce and straightaway decided to have Mango Rice. The Tom Yam and Green Curry noodles were calling also....but for vanity's sake, we shall just have one dish la, k? hehe.
Ordered the Mango Rice and coconut drink to pour the sweetness to our deserving tummy (what la, we wake up early to be the first people in Lunch Actually for the Party okay! luckily we went early).
When it came, whoa, straightaway digged in and makan makan makan. For RM5, they actually are very generous in thier portions of mango and pulut. They gave us the WHOLE mango (minus the seeds). Amelia and I were like happy little kids munching away.
yummylicious to the max!
I do not know when the fair's going to end, but, hey, go try it out...You can either sit there and have your food right away or take away. There are, however, limited seats, so just wait for a while la, i'm sure someone will be taking their last bite of pulut somewhere.
:D
