T / Rice

I asked for chilli. They gave me the entire plant in a dish. Work was a bit hot the rest of the day...

Or otherwise known as Chuối nếp nướng. For the Banana lovers. But i like the outside, not too sweet - just right!

The rice paper rolls before we dipped them into the water! It looks lovely in its little bamboo housing. Edible rice paper is used for making fresh summer rolls (salad rolls) or fried spring rolls in Vietnamese cuisine, where the rice paper is called bánh tráng or bánh đa nem. Ingredients of the food rice paper include white rice flour, tapioca flour, salt, and water. The tapioca powder makes the rice paper glutinous and smooth.

The menu is quite simple here and I didnt want to keep ordering the same foods - so I went down the fried rice path! Surprisingly quite nice! Did you know the difference that makes Thai fried rice different is that it is usually served with sliced cucumber and "Prik nam pla", a spicy sauce made of Thai chili, fish sauce and chopped garlic.

In much of Asia, brown rice (Chinese: 糙米; pinyin: cāomǐ; literally "rough rice"; Korean: 현미; hyeonmi; literally "dark rice"; Japanese: 玄米; genmai; Thai: ข้าวกล้อง; Vietnamese: gạo lứt; Tagalog: pináwa) is associated with poverty and wartime shortages, and in the past was rarely eaten except by the sick, the elderly and as a cure for constipation. This traditionally denigrated kind of rice is now more expensive than common white rice, partly due to its relatively low supply and difficulty of storage and transport.

Also called sweet rice, waxy rice, botan rice, biroin chal, mochi rice, and pearl rice, and pulut) is a type of short-grained Asian rice that is especially sticky when cooked.

Fried Rice from Thai restaurants is radically different from that of common fried rice, mostly due to the use of Jasmine rice and has various additions not found in Chinese fried rice. It is usually served with sliced cucumber and "Prik nam pla", a spicy sauce made of Thai chili, fish sauce and chopped garlic.

Fresh Rice Paper! Dip these into Boiling/Hot Water to soften it up and ready to wrap food into!

Probably my fav place for Fried rice now. There's no mini prawns and it's made pretty spot on!
