Hearty boat noodle broth

After seeing photos of the beef noodles, I have been meaning to visit because the broth looks as good as Samsen.
The decor was bright and colourful.


The menu:


USDA Prime beef boat noodle:

The beef broth was dark and strong as anticipated but a bit sweet for my liking.
The beef was a bit chewy  but the pork balls were good.

Also had the chicken rice but it wasn't memorable.

Finished with the Thai style tea which was quite nice.

It’s not Christmas but Boxing Day everyday at this restaurant because the restaurant décor is themed like a boxing ring and stadium with seats and related items displayed on the wall.

This restaurant serves Thai food at reasonable prices and portions.

Here was what we had:
+++++++
cendol coconut drink:
 0 讚好

+++++++
Spicy crab meat salad stuffed Lychee $78
 0 讚好

This was too good to share because the Lychees were not too sweet stuffed with fiery fresh crabmeat infused with lemongrass and chili.
Beneath the lychees were delicious glass vermicelli that was really appetizing because it was soaked in this delicious sauce.
+++++++
thai raw prawns:
 1 讚好

These were chilled raw prawns with a chili garlic dip.
+++++++
Hainan chicken:
 0 讚好

The chicken was interesting because it was the first time I have seen chicken soup poured on top of it before it is served which helps to warm and moisten the chicken.
The soup drains into the bowl at the bottom where you can dip the chicken into it or drink it.



The chicken breast was tender and the sauces complemented it nicely.
+++++++
Champion jumbo seafood noodle soup $138

The bowl was big and the amount of noodles in it were enough for the six of us!!
 0 讚好

The noodles were appetizing because the broth was spicy with a hint of tomato and lemongrass.
+++++++
Tom yum goong:
The tom yum goong soup was similar to the soup broth above but stronger.

+++++++
Pad Thai:

The noodles were wrapped in a thin omelette skin.
A popular must order item which has a sweet kick to it.
+++++++
Steamed grey mullet with spicy lemon soup in hotpot $178

+++++++
Special crab curry:

The crab in thick curry sauce was another popular pick and the curry sauce tasted great with the baguettes.
+++++++
Garlic bread:

+++++++
Coconut crème brulee:


Frankly I am bored of crème brulee but this one was amazing because it was not sweet and the only sweetness came from the burnt caramel on top which was a thin layer.
The creme brulee was infused with a fragrant coconut taste and you can scoop the coconut flesh which adds another dimension to it.

+++++++
Pandan layered cake:

The pandan pudding was fragrant and somehow I managed to taste some banana.
+++++++
















[Review 4767] LKF is on fire @ Grill ขุนทอง

Grill ขุนทอง

Noticed this shop in the summer and it visually made you feel like the street was on fire standing close to it because they have a digital burning fire on the LCD panel.
Decided to try it now because the weather was cooler.
I would have had the dry aged steak because I love dry aged meats but it was sold out.

Anyway, settled for skewers and tried the chicken, pork, squid, sausage and asparagus.
The sauces were a bit confusing just like silverthoughts said because for chicken and pork they are paired with satay sauce so you can't choose.
Most of the skewers I had were paired with satay sauce which gave it a nice peanut taste and the beef was most impressive because it was lean and tender.
For drinks I had the lime soda which tasted natrual and not sweetened.

This place is going to popular with partygoers and expats because it looks clean and simple.
They also have rice as well.

There are lots of choices in Wan Chai but went here because a friend worked nearby.

Here was what we had:
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Pineapple smoothie:
A bit too sweet.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Sambal okra:

Normally dishes cooked with sambal are very spicy but the sambal here was not very spicy so I liked it and the cherry tomatoes gave it a strong tomato taste in the sauce.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Stir fried young pea shoots:
 3 讚好

The pea shoots were crisp and tender in a light sweet garlic gravy.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Fish gas bladder soup:
This was a warming thick soup loaded with fish gas bladder slices, chicken and shitaake mushrooms.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Sweet dessert:
 2 讚好

To be honest, it looked like sushi.
 3 讚好

It was a piece of sweet egg on top of fragrant pandan flavoured glutinous rice that was not too sweet.
