This is a small shop that serves thai food. I didnt expect to see a queue on a weekday night.So, we queued up and waited for seats. The wait was abt 20mins.
When we finally sat down, it was abt 7.30pm. we were so hungry.Livingstone ordered the fanta grape in a glass bottle - $2.
Our orders:1) Tom Yam - Seafood, and we ordered the clear soup type. Somehow, i prefer clear soup, neva like tom yam in orange color. This soup is good to our tastebud. Very strong fragrance. We like.
2) pineapple fried rice - it was ok, fragrant enuf, the only thing i dun like is the texture of the rice. It was probably fried too long, and the rice became a tad too soft.
3) Asparagus with prawns - one of my fav crunchy vege! Nice. Portion is small though. Gd for 2-3 persons only, and there is only one size available.
4) Chicken with cashew nuts - when i saw this, i was exclaiming, i want this i want this!! and I hope it will be cooked the same way as the stalls in thailand does....but, to my disappointement, it was cooked like sweet and sour pork. It was still nice, but not to my expectations.
5) Minced beef with basil leaves - Not very spicy, was jus nice. Very good with rice.
6) Tapioca with coconut - This is my fav thai dessert. However, I still prefer Joe's the kitchen's. Bcos Joe served it hot and with white sesame, there is this ooomph! factor when u put the tapioca into ur mouth. For this, it tasted just normal.
 We ordered so much food just for the two of us, but we managed to finish all! Guess we were too hungry! haha...The total damage was $38 (quite exp IMO).We will be back to try their other items on the menu. :)Nakhon KitchenBlk 212 Hougang Street 21#01-341Tel: 62868785Labels: Dinner, Food, thai

Rem I blogged abt min jiang the other time?and their durian pudding i had really blown me away!that sunday, i decided to go buy take-away, so that I can offer them to my mom and sister.its the durian festival anyway (that wk, this is the 3rd time im having durian...hee hee)So, we drove to goodwood park before going to my sista's hse.
$3 for a cup. hmm...was a bit disappointed with the take-away texture, probably too much pudding and lesser durian compared to the one I had at the restaurant itself.Proceeded to Vivocity for lunch and some shopping.
At Kim Gary, ryan boy holding his fav snack....fries....happens to be my fav too!!
Unker and nephew posing for me....so cute...
I ordered the spicy noodles....yum yum!Forget abt our shopping harvest!Let's skip to dinner. That nite, I brought them to Joe's Kitchen - Thai Cuisine...Been wanting to bring them there, but too many on the list...haha...Lucky I made reservation, else we would have to sit outside, or queue up for seats..but parking at alexandra during dinner hours on weekends is really a killer la..here's our menu:
fried fish - chili, thai style - nice.
sambal potato leaves - abit blend, texture not too right.
deep fried stuff chicken - im not a big fan of stuff chicken, but am ok to try.
here's the fillings - basically consists of corn and water chestnut, not my type. but the crust was crispy and good.
tom yam and green curry - tom yam was spicy and nice. i didnt try the green curry though. It was my sista's fav.
crab vermicelli - abit blend
thai pineapple fried rice - was ok.The total damage was $60.There is only one chef at work, so do expect a wait on ur menu. The lady boss is VERY friendly and sociable. Had a good time talking to her since both of us were expecting. haha...Actually we didnt order any dessert, but as I walked past their kitchen, I saw them preparing the tapioca with coconut milk, and I was so bloody attracted. Im not a big fan for tapioca. I do not rem myself ordering tapioca at any stalls or restaurants.But the lady boss, forgot my order but later on, she offer it to us on the house as an apology.
 Listen, this tapioca dessert is awesome! I love it! very nice. It changed my opinion towards tapioca from now on. Recalling it makes me crave for more now!Labels: dessert, durian, Food, HK, thai

we always meet online, but we seldom meet face to face....thank god for msn, otherwise, we would be like many old folks who have lost touch with their old frens long long ago....Especially now that she is no longer in Singapore, it's tougher to meet up...Caught her when she was back this time, we had a nice catching up at Siam Kitchen in Bugis Junction.
 Fried chicken wings... (average)
 Tom Yam ... (average)
 My Beef noodles..... too salty
Green Curry (Not nice)
 The topic was mainly on kids - disciplining and disciplining..... Christine, being the most experienced of all, shared her pains and woes (which I prob will experience myself in time to come, soon...)It was a weekday nite, we all hv to work the next day, we had to bid goodbye to Christine as she has to return to Australia on the Saturday, "Goodbye my dear fren, till we meet on online again!"Labels: christine, Dinner, thai
