The Great Thai Feast @ Seasonal Taste |
From
18 to 31 July 2016, Seasonal Taste is bringing you The Great Thai
Feast. With Seasonal Tastes’ resident Sous Chef Sedtapat
Sukpaisanpongsa, alongside Chef Kamonwan Juntarasert and Chef Sittha
Sa-Nguansat, proudly presenting a selection of authentic Thai
culinary treasures, from its omnipresent street food to perennial
favourites originating from Isaan, the Northeast region of Thailand.
Little
Devil and Chubby Botak Koala tried the sumptuous Thai dishes and
recommended this top 5 must try dishes in The Great Thai Feast at
Seasonal Taste:
Beef
Noodles (Kuay Teow Nuaa). This
is one of our favourite street food when we are in Bangkok. Though
the version here is more sterile compare to the version in Thailand,
it delivers on the taste. The consommé beef broth is beefy and
robust, while the beef brisket, tripe, tendon was springy yet
succulent like it has been cooked over long period. The beef liver
and sliced meat is done to medium rare, while the bouncy beef ball
add to the texture in the noodle soup. Yum Yum!!

Grilled Pork Neck (Kor Moo Yang) |
The
dips. Little Devil was enjoying
herself here with the Isaan speciality. The fermented shrimp paste
(Nam Prik Kapi) and Fermented Chilli Shrimp Paste (Nam Prik Pao).
These pungent fermented shrimp paste really opens up her appetite for
the rest of the dishes here. Followed this with Papaya Salad (Som
Tam) paired with salted egg it will give you a deeper appreciation in
Northeast region of Thailand

Crispy
Pork Rind (Kaeb Moo) & Green Curry.
This freshly fried pork skin is definitely a winner. It was lightly
seasoned, hollow and crispy, it provide a good companion for the
curry and tom yum. I normally get a big pack when I am in Golden Mile
to go with my curry, but here it was free flow. The green curry is
thick and rich of spices and coconut milk. Although it was served
with noodle, I suggest you just have it with the meat + pork rind
+rice, as the noodle easily become bloated.

The
Pumpkin Custard (Sang Kaya Faktong).
While others might go straight for the ever popular mango with sticky
rice, we believe this pumpkin custard is a must try dish here. The
pumpkin cooked till soft and paired with creamy egg custard, it is
not too sweet with a hint of salt from the custard. It is a well
balance dish to end the meal.
