Erawan Part II


Ever since I revealed my favourite secret location for my usual Thai fix in one of the previous post, my sister has been blaming me for not taking her there. Last weekend was very timely as I was having my off day on Saturday and I felt like having a full day of eating out. We started with dim sum at Imperial China in Subang Jaya for brunch and then Snowflake at SS15 before making reservation at Erawan for dinner.

Lucky last Saturday wasn't crowded at Erawan. As usual, Anan came and took our orders and he told me that I was in luck because someone pre-ordered a Lemongrass Chicken and since he made extras, I can tap on the order.



Wow, I must say that the Lemongrass Chicken (RM32) was really good. The taste of lemongrass was intense and I can tell that this chicken is very well-marinated and nicely roasted. It goes very well with the Thai chili sauce as well as their home made sauce. Pre-order is required by at least 24 hours.



He also introduced a Pomelo Salad (RM25) for our appetiser. It was indeed a very interesting salad as you get generous amounts of freshly imported pomelo, laden with crushed peanuts, coriander and 3 huge succulent prawns. The sauce that accompanied the salad compliments it very well. It's a very refreshing appetiser.



We ordered a different green curry this time. It's called the Green Curry Fish Paste with Salted Egg (RM32). This curry has 5 fish paste balls (made purely with ikan tenggiri) and stuffed with Thai salted egg yolk. The curry is not too spicy and it's quite interesting to have salted egg yolk with curry. I thought it might taste weird but it didn't.




Ziling wanted the Thick Tom Yum soup (RM30) with seafood. I usually order their clear tom yum and spiciness rating is capped at 1.5. Calvin wanted to a rating of 5 but I stopped him because obviously I can't stomach that. After trying the soup, Calvin had changed his mind about having it at level 5. Haha... We didn't really enjoy the thick soup as it was too milky.

The dinner was very satisfying. We managed to gobbled up the 6 dishes and a dessert. Together with the Lemongrass with Honey & Ginger juice, the bill came up to RM200. It's not cheap but at least I have no complaints. After that we head home to catch the World Cup match.

I was watching my favourite team - Argentina up against Nigeria. Wow, I must say that the goalkeeper for Nigeria was quite good. If not, the score wouldn't be 1:0 because Argentina has lots of near-goal-attempts. Too bad that most of the interesting matches is played at 2.30am and I am not quite ready to sacrifice my sleep. I'll probably do it when it comes to the quarter or semi-finals.
