Conveniently situated just past the bridge crossing linking the two wings of Orchard Towers, and right where the carpark is at, the spartan eatery benefits from a fair bit of foot traffic. Service is speedy and efficient; always a bonus when space is limited and a high turnover is needed. Another bonus: they open till the wee hours of dawn, probably to cater to the nocturnal hinterland, and they accept advance call-ahead orders, which is why we've taken away supper on a weekly basis.
The Tom Yum Goong ($12) was as fiery as it looked, always a good thing, dosed with a sour zing, and generously laden with straw mushrooms, tomatoes, and bouncy shrimps. A teensy weensy gripe: the alkali-treated shrimps were lacking in sweetness.
A must-try, the Panang Gai ($12) was creamy, potent, gloriously nutty, and totally sumptuous. Scrumptious over white rice.
The Phad Kra Pow ($12), minced pork stir-fried with long beans, green peppers, chilli and basil, can be a little inconsistent. Still, the savoury heat, robust flavours, and the lovely crunch of the greens, makes a wonderful pairing with white rice.
The Seafood Phad Thai ($10) was commendably done as well, with a faint aroma of a smoky wok wafting through every strand.
