Pre-Starter
The Chive Cracker is a delicate, crisp pre-starter that sets the tone for an exquisite dining experience. It has a subtle hint of chives that is enhanced by the dipping sauce. The crispiness makes this very addicting.
Starter
The Pu Nim Hor Fong Tao Hu Thod presents a trio of deep-fried stuffed tofu skins, each generously filled with a soft shell crab, crab meat, and minced pork with crunchy water chestnuts. Served with a side of tangy plum sauce, this dish delivers a delightful blend of crispy texture and rich flavors in every bite.
The Phla Lai Bua Hoy Chell is a salad dish that showcases perfectly seared Hokkaido scallops paired with lotus stem and vibrant pomelo, all drenched in a fragrant homemade chili paste. This dish offers a refreshing burst of umami and textures, blending the delicate sweetness of the scallops and the bright tartness of the pomelo with the mild heat of the chili paste.
Main Course
The Talae Kua Sauce Kem features succulent squid and juicy tiger prawns, complemented by the distinctive crunch of bitter beans, all sautéed in a richly seasoned salted seafood oil. This dish combines the umami depth of the seafood with the bold, slightly bitter notes of the beans.
Moo Thod Ma-Kwaen features crispy fried Kurobuta pork neck seasoned with crushed Northern Thai pepper. Paired with a tangy tamarind sauce, this dish offers a blend of mildly sweet and spicy flavors that brighten up the savory tender pork.
Nuea Khem Tom Kati is a dish made with tender salted beef cheek simmered with shallots and chili in a rich, creamy coconut milk broth. This dish marries the savory depth of the beef with the subtle sweetness and spiciness of the coconut milk, creating a comforting and indulgent flavor.
NOTE: As an alternative to this beef dish, you may opt to order the Gaeng Phed Tai Pla Kraphong Bai Yira, a rich Southern Thai curry featuring tender seabass, crunchy green taro stem, and aromatic cumin leaves.
Dessert
The Maphrao Cheesecake is a decadent dessert featuring a velvety coconut cheesecake base topped with luscious white chocolate mousse and delicate young coconut jelly. This indulgent treat combines the rich creaminess of the cheesecake and mousse with the light, refreshing notes of coconut.
The quartet of petits fours offers a delightful finale to the meal. With a range of crispy and silky elements, these bite-sized confections perfectly balance traditional Thai flavors, creating a satisfying end to the dining experience.
