Spicy Thai Thai Cafe New Menu - Healthier Options for everyone!

I've been to Spicy Thai Thai Cafe many times and everytime, they surprise me with their new creation. This time I'm back to try their Thai-Chinese Dishes which are good for friends who don't take spicy food or friends who are looking for lighter options. Read on to find out more!


First, I would like to recommend Spicy Thai Thai Cafe's Claypot Coconut Tom Yum Soup $18 (small) / $28 (big). The broth is the best I've had in Singapore, I kid you not. And being served in a claypot ensures that the soup stays warm for a long time. Highly recommend!


Next up, a great dish to have for this Chinese New Year - Deep Fried Sea Bass with Thai Turmeric Sauce 泰式酥炸黄酱汁鲈鱼 or the Thai Sambal Sea Bass 泰式阿毵鲈鱼 - Seasonal Price . I'm personally more inclined to the Thai Sambal Sea Bass as the Sambal they used taste so good with everything! The Thai Turmeric Sauce sea bass is the option to go without the heat.

Mama always say to have some greens in your diet for a balanced meal. So here we have the triple emerald happiness. Haha. Stir-Fry Broccoli with Scallops 干贝炒西兰花 $20Stir-Fry Garlic Baby Sweet Potato Leaves 小番薯叶炒蒜蓉 $10.

I especially love the Jade Noodles with Thai Pork Meatballs - $6/portion (pic shows 3 portion) because I'm not a fan of greens. The jade noodles were cooked just right and the thai pork meatballs were so good I had to resist myself from popping them all into my mouth. 

Spicy Thai Thai Cafe does a really good Dill Omelette, but what happens when you put them into a great broth and all the flavours just explode in every mouthful of soup? The Kaeng Som Cha Om 泰式野菜煎蛋辣汤 $18 is the choice to go if you think eating a normal omelette is too mainstream. This Omelette soup is nothing like those Eggy soup that we have at home. This is a fried omelette cooked in a spicy & sourish soup. Slurrrrp~ 

Thank you Spicy Thai Thai for the wonderful dishes this time round. Check them out for any slots for your last minute CNY dinner get together and impress your friends!

Spicy Thai - Thai Cafe

*Sponsored*

With everyone Cafe Hopping here and there, I've also come to realize that we have more and more Thai Food Joints opening up, serving Mookata and Authentic Thai Style Tze char dishes. I always have a craving for thai food every few months. Makes me miss Bangkok everytime.

Spicy Thai-Thai Cafe was founded by homegrown businessman, Ron Poh five years ago. It started with the passion of seeking real authentic Thai food. Ron was an engineer by training and owns another business in the Telecommunications Engineering industry. He has an unexplainable affinity with anything Thai, from culture to food. If you are one avid fan of Thai food, you’ll be happy that someone is doing it the real authentic way right here in the heart of Singapore; from using charcoal for soup and steamed dishes to maintain heat consistency and quality, importing tea leaves from Thailand for the signature Thai Iced Tea, different own-made dressings for different dishes, to desserts made from scratch, or even customized dishes... and this is exactly the authenticity Ron wants to bring across as the brand personality and offerings of Spicy Thai-Thai Cafe.

If you are looking for a classic meal of Thai cuisine that delivers on taste and won’t break the bank, Spicy Thai-Thai Cafe is the right place for you. The cafe is decked out in a comfortable non-intimidating Thai decor, with ornate patterns, bouquets of flowers and ceiling fans whirling. The cafe looks out onto the lush greenery and a quaint garden. Savour authentic Thai cuisine with laid-back atmosphere, and enjoy them so much that your taste buds sing!

Iced Thai Tea($2.00) & Ice Lemongrass($1.80) is the most common drink choice for my friends and family, haha! The Thai Ice tea is so addictive with its aroma but the lemongrass can put out the fire in my mouth when I start my feast. Oh.. Dilemma!

Thai food can't do without pork, herbs, seafood and Chilli in my humble opinion! I personally take pork very seriously because if not handled well or otherwise, pork can turn into a disaster dish. But no worries at Spicy Thai, Their BBQ Pork Neck is so fragrant and tender, we could not stop going for it. It's a little sweet, a little smokey, similar to what we chinese call the charsiew.
BBQ Pork Neck $10
BBQ Chicken Wings $6 (4pcs) / $9 (6pcs)

Seafood is always a highlight at any Thai Restaurant/Eatery. Ranging From Shellfish to fresh water fish, you can have a wide range of options to choose from. Thai Cuisine also love to use basil in their cooking because it has a very special aroma which makes it really tasty. Just like the Basil Mussels, Fragrant and slightly spicy, and you can still taste the freshness of the mussels! Their Prawn Cakes were Juicy and Plump. Generous with the prawns, less flour or what not, makes my $2 per piece feel so worth it.
Basil Mussels $15
Prawn Cake $2 per pc
Deep Fried Kang Kong with Special Thai Sauce $10

I love eggs, Fried, Steamed, Half Boiled etc. Spicy Thai's Dill Pattie Omelette will definitely make heads turn with its aromatic fragrance from the use of Dill. My fellow diners were praising it and could not resist going for more! Another variation would be the Water-fry egg. I do not know how they did it but it's so yummy and I'm sure it would be great for the kids! The Crispy Sun-Dried Fish is a great contrast to the soft water-fry egg, but when you eat them together, it brings out the aroma of the sun-dried fish and makes it really pleasant to the palate.
Dill Pattie (Cha Om) Omelette $8
Water-fry Egg with Thai Style Crispy Sun-dried Fish $12

I would like to recommend the La La Bee Hoon, Full of sweetness from the Fresh Clams and the peppery kick from the white pepper used is enough to make you addicted! I can't take spicy food well but I couldn't resist going for more of this dish! The La La is more than bee hoon Lor I think, So generous!
Lala (Clams) Bee Hoon $18

While the Red Emperor Snapper was very rich and full of flavour and mouthfeel, the Thai Walking Catfish won my heart in every possible way. From the spicy lemon soup to the super tender flesh. I've never ever dared to try catfish despite see-ing it in many restaurants because I was afraid of the muddy taste of a freshwater fish, but the Catfish at Spicy Thai made me want to explore more variations of the catfish now!
Red Emperor Snapper with Chilli Garlic $Seasonal Price
Thai Walking Cat Fish with Spicy Lemon Soup $28

Thai Desserts are so simple yet so delicious. Just like the Sticky Glutinous Rice with Mango, 3 simple ingredients, 1 wonderful dessert, though I feel that the Glutinous Rice could been done better. A comforting dessert would be the Tapioca in coconut milk, warm and sweet, Mmmmm.
Sticky Glutinous Rice with Mango $6
Tapioca in Coconut Milk $3.50

Beautifully Coloured Chestnuts enclosed in a layer of potato flour to have that shiny outer layer. The Thai Red Ruby paired with some sugar syrup and Coconut milk, served Iced Cold for maximum enjoyment. Best way to chill down on a hot day in our sunny singapore would be to chow down on the Lemongrass Jelly with Aloe Vera Cubes & Calamansi served ice cold, Perfect Combination to cool you down after all the fiery exciting thai dishes.
Thai Red Ruby $3.50
Lemongrass Jelly with Aloe Vera Cubes & Calamansi $2.50

Have you started to think about your reunion dinner plans? Why not head over to Spicy Thai to have a slightly different cuisine for Reunion Dinner this year. Or maybe a reunion dinner with your friends this year. Haha, Check out Spicy Thai's New Year Offerings!

Cheers To a Happy New Year everyone and a boutiful Lunar New Year!

[F.T] Siam Society Singapore

The closest we can get to Thailand is to indulge in Thai Food, so a new thai eatery - Siam Society has popped up along Jalan Riang, replacing the space that used to be Fat Cat. I am jealous of residents staying around Jalan Riang because they have so much delicious food there such as Wimbly Lu and Cajun King!

Thai Iced Tea & Lemongrass ($3.90 ea). I can never miss out these drinks whenever I visit a Thai restaurant, be it for Mookata or for Phad thai or for Tom Yum Soup, I will never fail to order them. Siam Society's Homemade Lemongrass is fragrant and not too sweet which is great for quenching our thirst or to sooth the spiciniess when we indulge in the yummy food.

Mango Salad ($9.90) - Spicy & Sour to kick start your palate in anticipation for the dishes coming on later.
Clear Seafood Tom Yum Soup (S - $10.90 / L - $16.90) Fresh seafood in the seemingly harmless clear soup that packs a punch on every sip, Shiok ah!

Siam Society has one of the best Green Curry Chicken ($12.90) I've had in Singapore so far! Creamy, Flavourful with tender pieces of chicken meat, I suspect it is chicken thigh meat lor. So good with rice!!
Salted Egg Cuttlefish($14.90) lacks the excitement that we normally have at Zi Char stalls where the cuttlefish is deep fried with a crispy batter before coating with salted egg sauce. Siam Society's version is clean and cuttlefish is fresh.

Thai Morning Glory ($8.90) - What a beautiful name for a simple dish of stir-fry veg. No fancy seasoning, just good stir fry veggies, dig in!

Yellow Curry Prawn ($17.90) - One of the dish at Siam Society that I would definitely recommend to everyone! Alongside with Weeping Tiger(Grilled Sirloin Beef) ($24.90), is among the few Signature dishes at Siam Society that everyone should try!! My table of ladies could not stop praising the Yellow Curry Prawns, and I must say the prawns are real fresh and the yellow curry is nothing near death spicy, so it's suitable for everyone, I believe even kids!

HIGHLIGHT OF THE DAY - Steamed Seabass ($31.90) - Fresh WHOLE Seabass in the spicy and sourish sauce which excites the palate like no other! even if we had a full tummy, we would do our very best to swallow this delicious seabass anytime because it's just too good!! Prawn Cake Balls ($11.90) are like addictive popcorn chicken but with prawn and a crispy batter together with a plum dip. A little on the salty side but It is addictive when dipped in the plum sauce! Yums!

The Classic Trio of Thai Dessert, Red Ruby ($4.90), Tapioca ($4.90) & Mango Sticky Rice ($7.90). Red Ruby is made of water chestnut and topped with shaved ice and jackfruit strips, pretty good version here at Siam Society. I recently fell in love with tapioca although my all time favourite has been Mango Sticky Rice. Hmmmmm.. Can I just have them all? :)

I truly enjoyed myself at Siam Society and the ambience there is great for a group of friends to chill out and just chit chat the night away, although it's a little inconvenient, but I would say it's definitely worth a visit!

[F.T] Rochor Thai - A taste of Home Recipe Thai Cuisine

Very thankful for the invite by Openrice & Rochor Thai for this food tasting session. I always have a love/hate relationship with Thai Food, I love how they are so flavourful and appetizing, But some dishes can really sweat the hell outta me, because they are too spicy.

Rochor Thai relocated in to the Street of Joo Chiat, alongside with many other yummy food joints, and it's not hard to spot as the whole shop front is painted Orange.

Pandan Lemongrass Drink - Taste like Agar Agar Water, Pandan Infused Lemongrass Drink that will make you want seconds! Unlike the normal lemongrass drinks around, this one is sweeter and more fragrant, lesser on the lemongrass taste which is super suitable for me.


Amouche Bouche - A wonderful mixture of Sweet, Sour, Spicy & Bitter.


Som Tum – Green Papaya Salad Central Thailand Style ($6.80)
A dish that resembles the one in Thailand very much.


Gaeng Kaew Wan Gai - Chef's Special Green Curry with Chicken Thigh and Thai Eggplant
 (S - $11.80, L - $18.80)


Po Taek – Clear Spicy Sour Soup with Holy Basil and Kaffir Lime Leaves (S - $8.80, L - $15.80)
Tom Yum Soups need to be sour and spicy enough to be Good, Rochor Thai's Version will not be sour enough but it is definitely Spicy Enough! Maybe you could highlight to the chef to make it more sour.


Tom Yum Talay – Hot & Spicy Seafood Soup with Thai Herbs (S - $8.80, L - $15.80)


Dry Red Curry Red Snapper ♥ (S - $16.80, L - $24.80) 
 MY ABSOLUTE FAVOURITE DISH!
Fresh and Tender pieces of Red Snapper Fillets, Fried to a crisp and coated with the special Dry Red Curry Paste that is Sweet and Spicy at the same time. This dish will go super well with Rice.


Pla Nin Pao – Salt Baked Whole Tilapia served with Spicy Coriander Sauce ($22.80)
Another Fish Dish, Although salt baked, the fish is still tender and moist and not too salty at all. Accompanied with the spicy coriander sauce, it brings the fish to another level.


Kor Moo Yang – Seared Pork Collar served with Aromatic Dried Chilli Sauce ($12.80)
This dish is sooooo good! Everyone was praising it. Eat it with or without the Dried chilli sauce.


Pad Kee Mao Goong - Stir Fried Thai "Drunken" Style Prawns (S - $16.80, L - $24.80)
Contrary to normal hear-say, Rochor Thai's "Drunken" style prawns are suppose to kick you awake from your drunken state, instead of bringing you in to it. Fresh Succulent Prawn that are tossed with special spicy sauce, I'm sure I will definitely enjoy this with Beer. Oops!


Hoay Lai Pad Prik Pao - Clams Flambe in Chilli Jam and Chef's Stock (S - $14.80, L - $22.80)
I'm usually not a clam kinda person, but the clams Rochor Thai selected was very delectable. Fresh Flower Clams that are not too big and not too small, I couldn't resist having afew more.


Phad Thai Talay  (S - $7.80, L - $14.80)


Khao Niew Ma Muang - Mango Sticky Rice ($7.80)
Sweet Sweet Mango with Warm Sticky Rice, Oh How I miss Thailand.


Tab Tim Grob - Thai Red Ruby ($4.80)
This is one of the better Red Ruby around, enough chewiness of the chestnut accompanied by the coconut milk, topped with Ice, it makes a pretty and cooling dessert.
