Last weekend, my parents brought me to a Thai restaurant for dinner. The Thai restaurant is called Maa Roy Thai Food located on Lorong Abu Siti. It’s an authentic Thai food restaurant because the chef, the waiter and all working inside is Thai, they speak Thai and English.

This was my first time going there but it’s my parents’ second time. It’s nice knowing this place.

We were served with an appetizer and it’s the Thai salad-liked dish. It’s called nampit if I’m not mistaken, freshly cut cucumber and longbeans, dip it with Thai spicy sambal.

Thai styled omelette with minced meat floss and tomato. It tastes sweet but I don’t like the taste. Some may like it but not me. It’s not that bad, but I want to try the vegetable filled omelette next time.

Here’s a fried fish with spicy sour soup. It’s not tomyam, but the soup is spicy and a little bit sour. They give an extra bowl of soup to pour onto the fish if you find the soup is not enough.

Balacan fried rice is delicious. The waiter said that the famous one is pineapple fried rice but he, himself recommended us the balacan fried rice and so we ordered a plate of it for 3 person. It comes with a side dish that have onion, cooked meat, cut mango and chilis.

As for tomyam, it’s nice. I’ve forgotten to take a photo of it, but what I got to say that it taste like what I had in Thailand before. I like red tomyam then clear tomyam.

    We went there for dinner today. The appetizer was good but the mango salad was just so so. Nevertheless, the best dish is still the lemon steamed siakap fish, they are very generous to give an extra bowl without us asking for it. My family love it so much that we finish the fish and the soup to the very last drop. The fish was truly a very satisfying dish for all of us!

    However, what we were not so happy about was they charge RM1 for a super small bowl of rice and RM0.80 for a glass of water which is usually given free in most restaurants.

    Yeah, I love the soup too. You can ask for one of their cold dish, raw prawn to be eaten with sour chilli sauce. It's just like sashima ala Thai style.
