Mr. Tom Yam @ Sunway Giza

I was craving for Thai food again. In fact the previous past weeks, I've gone to my favourite secret Thai restaurant two weeks in a row. One evening, I asked Hue Gee where she wanna have dinner as Yiling & I was free and she said she wanted to try Mr. Tom Yum at Sunway Giza. Sunway Giza is the new and happening mall in Sunway Damansara which house many restaurants, retail shops and also Village Grocer. It was my first time there and indeed, there was a crowd as it was dinner time.

So, Mr. Tom Yum it is!

The obligatory Tom Yum Fire Pot (RM19.90).

This is not the clear tom yum soup but one with a spicy orange colour. This pot is good for four although it says two. I like the taste which is very flavourful and not too spicy until it burns my tongue and made my nose runny. You can actually tell them to make it less spicy.

Crispy Catfish with Mango (RM12)

This is one of the interesting dishes I had. It was the shredded meat of the catfish fried till crispy and is eaten with the Kerabu Mango. The sourish mango makes a good appetiser and in it you'll find cili padi and also peanuts. So watch out because my sister happened to accidentally ate the chilli and her face went burning.

Thai Fish Cake (RM9)
The Thai Fish Cake is a real disappointment. It's tiny, lacked the firm texture and tasteless.

Stir Fried Baby Kailan with Salted Fish (RM14)
Nothing special about this dish as I couldn't even taste the presence of the salted fish.

Stir Fried Chicken with Cashew Nuts (RM15)
Nothing special as the dish wasn't what I expected to be.

Overall the bill came up to RM117 for these dishes, 2 lemongrass drinks and a coconut. I think it's pricey considering the size of the dishes and the taste. They might have nice ambiance and good branding (this is under the same management as Good Evening Bangkok, ToDineFor, and etc) but the food is really not up to my standards. It's not a satisfying Thai restaurant for me. Because in the end, it left me craving for my secret Thai restaurant again!

Even Hue Gee agrees.

Happy Wesak Day!!! Am sure that at this moment, somewhere in the Buddhist Maha Vihara Temple in Brickfields, our PM & his wife is having some vegetarian meal cooked by the renowned British celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay (here) whom hosted Hell's Kitchen! Hell breaks loose!!! *while I have my liquid diet at home* Lol...
