The 3 of us were having lunch at Long Chim (which translates to come and taste), a relatively upscale Thai restaurant at Marina Bay Sands owned by renowned Australian Celebrity Chef David Thompson, who is also behind the award winning Thai restaurant, Nahm, in Bangkok.

The Place

Located on the 2nd floor of MBS, Long Chim boasts a modern and trendy interior with Asian twists, scenes of Bangkok and a view of Marina Bay from certain tables. But the view is a double edged sword because you get plenty of natural light (great!) and some of the heat as well (not so great).

As this was our first visit, we decided to go with the set lunch.

Cured Pork Fritters

Deep fried breaded cubes filled with sourish cured pork and an uneven distribution of chilli; best eaten with the peanuts to help neutralise the sourness. No great shakes and not my cup of tea.

Miang Prawn

One of my dining companions had the Miang prawn, which was an assortment of ingredients (dried prawns, shallots, peanuts etc) wrapped in a betel leaf. Sweet, spicy and sour all at once - akin to a zesty rojak paste. Can't say this was well received.

Fried Rice with Roast Duck

This was my main course and though this dish came across as lightly salty and savoury, it lacked any discernable wok hei. I couldn't quite make out the taste of the duck slices as well, which was a pity. Overall a rather forgettable dish of fried rice.

Sweet Mango Sticky Rice

One of the quintessential Thai desserts, the humble mango sticky rice. Mildly sweet mango slices atop rather watery rice (too much creamy coconut milk!) and sprinkled with fried mung bean to inject some crunch. Decent dessert but portion sizes are minute; I finished the whole thing in 2 spoonfuls.

Bill

Lunch for the 3 of us cost ~ $94, which isn't expensive (ala carte and dinner prices are quite a bit higher though) given the prices at Marina Bay Sands in general but quality is average at best. Overhyped and rather underwhelming in my humble opinion. Service is decent though.

Final Verdict:

Ambience: 7/10

Service: 7/10

Food: 5.5/10

Value for money: 5.5/10

Overall: 6.25/10

We were in the are and decided to visit the place for lunch. Surprisingly it was not crowded. Just a couple of tables occupied. So we had our choice of table which was one overlooking the waterfront with natural lighting. After looking through the menu, we decided on the 3-course lunch set (S$30++) which includes a choice of soft or tea/coffee. We had iced thai milk tea and iced tea with lime, which were rich and not too sweet.Chives CakesThe cakes looked and tasted like the teochew style ku cha

Chives Cakes
The cakes looked and tasted like the teochew style ku chai kueh 韭菜粿 (chives steamed rice cake). The version here had pan fried to give it a crispy crust. Felt that the skin was tab too thick. Wish that there was sambal chilli sauce to go with it.

Cured Pork Fritters
Light and crispy on the outside, but the filling was too little to make an impression.

Kanom Jin Noodle served with Mash Prawn Curry
The prawn was minced quite finely. Although the sauce tasted more on the sour side, but one soon got used to it. Served with raw greens such as bean sprouts, long beans, cucumber, and mints.

Chicken Biryani Thai Style with Tomato & Herb Soup
Surprisely the dish did not use the long grain rice which was usually found in biryani in Singapore. The rice was flavourful and went quite well with the sweet tomato sauce. The chicken loooked dry and charred but was quite tender.

Mango and Sweet Sticky Rice
The rice was soft and chewy, although it was be better had it been served hot. Topped with the juicy sweet mango and crispy crunchy mung beans.

Durian Ice Cream with Sesame Wafer
The sesame wafer looked like the Beehive Cookies (Kuih Rose) 蜂窝饼 which was usually available during festive season. It was light and crispy, which gave a savoury taste when accompanying the rich and creamy durian ice cream.

Overall the food was great and the place was quite relaxing to be around.

The staff at the entrance is busy on phone when we arrived and to wait quite awhile to be served. Although I have made reservation for restaurant week, we are served with the normal menu. I ask for the restaurant week menu, which later is given with a disbelieve look. As the restaurant menu looks quite messy and there is no explaination about the menu from the staff, we decide to order from the normal menu.

Pacific Spring Punch ($8)
a refreshing non alcoholic punch combining zesty lemongrass with flower tea and citrus. cooling the palate for those spicier meals.
It is quite a refreshing and lemony taste drink. A peak me up.

Chiang Mai Chicken Larb

Chiang Mai Chicken Larb ($15)
northern spices with cabbage chilli mint and shallots
Although I not a fan of mints, the roll tastes spicy, refreshing and crunchy.

Braised Beef and Dumpling Soup

Braised Beef and Dumpling Soup ($24)
It is actually a simple beef noodle soup. The soup is quite bland by itself. But after adding the spicy sauce that served with it, it becomes quite a pick me up. The beef slices although thick but very tender and easy down the throat. The meatball is quite juicy too. Nice dish but a bit too overpriced.

Chicken and Wild Ginger Kanom Jin Noodles

Chicken and Wild Ginger Kanom Jin Noodles ($26)
served at room temperature with vegetables
It is served with long beans, sliced cucumber, bean sprouts and pickled mustard. To eat this, tear some noodles and vegetables into the bowl, and topped with the chicken curry sauce. Mix all together and the noodles will untangle easily. The chicken curry sauce is quite rich and creamy with strong ginger taste. Quite a refreshing dish.

Palm Sugar Pudding with Fresh Coconut

Palm Sugar Pudding with Fresh Coconut ($15++)
The pudding is very sticky but easy down the throat without feeling too sweet. It is topped with shredded fresh coconut. The taste kind of reminds one of a certain malay kueh.

Overall the food is not bad and different from what is usually served in the Thai restaurants in Singapore. But the prices are a bit too high. It is quite difficult to get the attention of the staffs. The kitchen is jammed with orders and we waited quite awhile for the food to be served. I have to ask 3 times before I finally get the dessert menu. Quite unexpected for such a high end restaurant.
