Decided to try out this restaurant in Tel Aviv after reading some very good reviews about it. It had came in first in the last 2 consecutive years as the best Asian food restaurant in Tel Aviv and also, I missed eating Thai food.
The English name was called Thai House. We only managed to get the 6pm reservation instead of 7pm coz its fully booked. We arrived at 5.50pm but there were already a few people around, so I guess we were not the only early eater. Most people in Israel eat dinner very late at about 8-9pm.
Hubby looking at the menu, the variety was less than Thai Express (which is still my fave )
For starter, we ordered the fried spring rolls, v nice and crispy. The fillings were pipping hot and tender. However, I wish it was bigger. Cost about $3-4 SGD per piece.
For the other starter, we ordered this spicy glass noodles with shrimps. The glass noodles turned out to be some translucent kway chup, but taste quite nice and chewy with a spicy sour taste.
The tom yum soup turned out to be huge with lotsa seafood. Taste not bad though not as spicy as the tom yum soup of Thai Express.
The next dish was super spicy. It was sliced pork grilled and cooked with lotsa chilli and spice, served with some glutinous rice and raw veggies. We just couldnt finished eating this coz it was too spicy for us. Guess our tolerance for spicy food had dropped after staying too long here.
Dessert was this bobo chacha ice with coconut milk, strawberries, honeydew and cane sugar. Yummy and just nice to cool our swollen lips.
Overall, the food was not bad and service was excellent coz when we were leaving the restaurant, it started to rain very heavily. The owner immediately ushered us back in and told us to wait inside till the rain got smaller. He led us to another table and ordered some hot tea for us, free of charge while we waited for the rain to subside. How nice! Dun think I can find such good service in SG. We will definitely be going back for sure.
After that, to work out the food, we went shopping. I finally get the chance to go to the Forever21 store and ended up buying 5 pieces of clothing. The price was comparable to SG and was considered cheap in Israel. The place was 2 storey high and the clothes display were quite messy, typical of F21. Think by far, the best and neatest F21 store I ever visited was in Florida Mall.
