Had cravings for thai food with the wife and decided to try BaliThai at IMM. Was wondering what to eat and saw that the next table had unfinished pineapple rice. Decided against it and I guess we made the right choice as after the meal I happen to read another review about the pineapple rice (bad network reception within the restaurant).Ordered the mango salad. How can one forget this appetizer at a Thai restaurant? Somehow felt the mango wasn't as fragrant as we had expected. Next was the long
Ordered the mango salad. How can one forget this appetizer at a Thai restaurant?
Somehow felt the mango wasn't as fragrant as we had expected.
Next was the long beans with salted egg yolk. The menu pictures show that the beans were tied in knots but the actual dish wasn't . Anyway, it's a refreshing taste as there were almost full egg yolks in the dish. Worth a try!
And yes, tom yam soup! Can't leave without trying. We ordered the seafood version. Soup was very good. Thick and filled with seafood. Wife found it a little too spicy which I later found out was because of the chilli padi at the bottom of the pot. Other than that, it's the perfect bowl of tom yam.
Tahu Telur! Served in a piece which the waiter helped to cut.
Overall quite average, made nice because of the sauce. The cucumber strips given were quite sparse and the skin of the tahu wasn't fluffy enough to give the extra oomph.
Think the best dish that night was the pandan chicken. Tender chicken parts (thigh) were wrapped in pandan leaves and deep fried. The chicken was well marinated and sweet. Comes in 4 or 6 pieces. Total damage that night was $77, including 2 drinks. Wife had the Lemon Tea (not bad) and I had the Lemongrass which I felt it was quite diluted.
