Dinner time we were in the siglap area and thought of eating something different for a change. so Thai food came to mind while we were running some banking errands between UOB / POSB. There's a small cash only carpark right outside.
Lemon Grass has been around for more than 10 years, always passed by but never dropped by. No better time than now, the first impression upon stepping in was, "dark / outdated". But there were quite a crowd finished eating and chit chatting.
Seated by the friendly staff , we ordered a unique lime + rose syrup carbonated drink to try it out. it was very appetizing and refreshing. They served the prawn crackers as appetizer, it was alright, not stale / "lau hong" or anything.
The tom yum goong , was very very spicy but weirdly enough , it opened my sense of taste for more food and paired off well with the fragrant fluffy thai jasmine rice which they served free flow topup upon 1st cost.the prawns inside the tom yum soup was very fresh. not that the portion was little but makes you really wish you had more (without paying more of course)
Then next dish, Thai fish cake, don't question how good it tastes, because your next question is where did they get that fancy plate?
The sweet basil minced chicken with brinjal had a strong fragrance and the sauce was very thick and palatable, I had it spread all over my rice.
The lemongrass/shallot chicken was the next hit as you can hear it sizzling as it approaches. The bubbling sauces was screaming "EAT MEEEEE" , wish granted.
Overall it was a really pleasant dining experience. costs wise I didn't take note how much it was but the price to portion and taste ratio is worth it.Post
