The restaurant is dominated in orange hues and i was told by the restaurant manager that orange colour has this effect that makes people hungry. It was not difficult to find this place as it is located near I12 Katong Shopping Centre. This is a lemongrass drink. It is made by themselves. It taste sweet but its bearable. I didnt finish the drink though but its worth a try. There is no strong taste of lemongrass in it as most restaurants have the overbearing taste.I love the cha yen here. Not dilu
The restaurant is dominated in orange hues and i was told by the restaurant manager that orange colour has this effect that makes people hungry. It was not difficult to find this place as it is located near I12 Katong Shopping Centre. This is a lemongrass drink. It is made by themselves. It taste sweet but its bearable. I didnt finish the drink though but its worth a try. There is no strong taste of lemongrass in it as most restaurants have the overbearing taste. I love the cha yen here. Not diluted and not overdosed with sugar. Was told that they have made the drink to suit the asian's taste. Appreciate the little details! I got to try the amuse bouche. Amuse bouche is also known as the chef's creation which is more common at western places. Rochor thai is interesting as i havent seen any thai places whose chef prepares amuse bouche. Its made up of 4 different flavours - spicy, sour, bitter and sweet. There was supposed to be a little bit of bitterness, but i couldnt taste any, which is a good thing, yes? Also, they change their creation every 3 weeks. One cup is definitely not enough
Next is the Pad Thai Talay. We ordered the non spicy version and it still taste good! I can see the chef's effort cooking this as the original ones are normally dry and very spicy but i dont think it suits the local taste buds. As usual, i polish 3/4 of the plate and i was still feeling hungry. Lastly, I had the red ruby. Again, the taste is different from the one serving at other thai places. The chestnut is not hard and its chewy. I heard that they uses beetroot instead of colouring as well? But the 'jelly' outside the chestnut certainly taste different! Will definitely visit the place again.
