Thai Shop Remains As Good

Post by Chiefeater Peter Yeoh

Fans of The Thai Shop can rejoice. It has moved successfully to 4 Siam Road (near junction with Dato' Kramat Road), and the food is as good as we remembered. Genial, hands-on owner, Mervyn Wee, is ever welcoming. His platoon of efficient Thai staff from Nakhon Ratchasima / Korat (Isaan region) churned out goodies with clockwork efficiency. We enjoyed every dish we ordered, and already planning our next visit to try more!

Thai Shop

Moo ping - grilled pork skewers. Its soft, moist texture, and caramelly-smokey fragrance were very addictive.
Thai Shop

Sai oua - Northern Thai spicy pork sausages. These fat, juicy minced pork sausages were highly-spiced, with strong lemongrass, kaffir limes leaf, galangal and red curry accents.
Thai Shop

Mama tomyum noodles - egg noodles in spicy-sour soup. Tastiest version we'd had. The only other place in George Town where we'd had as good was Whatsaeb on Carnarvon Street.

Khao kha moo - braised pig's trotter, with hard-boiled egg and "kai lan" greens & pickled mustard stems.

Yum woon sen - Thai glass noodle salad with seafood, sausages and minced pork.

Gaeng kaew wan gai - Thai green curry, served with rice and fried egg.

Khao pad kaprow kai - stir-fried chicken and basil, served with rice and fried egg.

Our drinks: Cha-yen (Thai iced milk tea) and iced lemon-tea.

Khao niew mamuang (Thai-style sticky rice with fresh mango). Love the sweet-salty glutinous rice - as much as we liked the one at Thara Thai on Prangin Lane.

Kluay buatchi maprow on (stewed bananas in coconut milk, with young coconut meat). This dessert, served warm, was a revelation - deliciously sweet and salty. A must-try.

Tub tim krob (Thai red rubies & jackfruit in coconut milk iced dessert)
