The menu is one page and most of the items on the board are either thai food or thai fusion food. Most of the items that aren't indicated to be spicy are somewhat spicy, so do ask the wait staff if it's spicy or not.1. Egg Noodles with Crabmeat, Prawns & Bacon $14.50++
I decided to try this out as I love bacon and crab meat and there aren't too many eateries that offer this east-meet-west fusion. The egg noodles were soft and layered in oil, but still tasted slightly sweet. The bacon was crispy on the edges and some pieces were blackened which I thoroughly enjoyed. The crab meat was legit crab meat, not crab stick and there were 3 juicy and crunchy prawns in the mix. There were cubes of garlic scattered all over the plate and I was busy picking each one of them out!2. Spaghetti with Roasted Pork, Asian Herbs & Pork Crackling $13.90++
This was a complete let down. Not only was the pork not "crackling" but it was super tough and hard to bite or even chew. The spaghetti was a little hard and was very oily. Bangkok Jam definitely needs to think about using less oil in all their dishes. But the noodles had a good fragrance from the overdose of garlic and olive oil.3. Stir Fried Kway Teow with New Zealand Beef & Holy Basil $13.90++
Instead of getting Pad Thai, we decided to get this. The beef was fresh and tender. It wasn't overly chewy and had a good balance between the saltiness and the sweetness of the tomatoes. The kway teow surprisingly wasn't too oily. The spgaghetti had way more oil on it's plate than this! I was rate this plate of kway teow similar to what you can get from your neighbourhood coffeeshop except that this plate costs almost $15 after GST and service charge. The portion was rather small. I think this wouldn't be enough for any hungry person.Overall : So-so food with hits and misses but the stylish ambience will make you feel like staying in longer to chill out with friends.
