I miss the food in Bangkok very much, especially the mango and papaya salad! My favorite!! Not to mention the tom yam kung.. arggg...these mouth watering food always in my mind. When I went to the gardens last weekend, this restaurant immediately caught my attention!!
Rak Thai, sorry the pic not very clear, hehe..hand shaking.. :p
I walked near to see the menu, hmm, the price are very reasonable. In fact, I didn't expect I can find food with these price at the Gardens!! We walked in and immediate the lady boss came near us. I think she's from Thai as she can speak Thai very well, besides that, she can speak good Cantonese too. All her staff were Thai.
It was around 9pm and she told us most of the food were sold off. Wow, so early? Only left the pineapple fried rice, green curry chicken, tom yam kung and somtam (papaya salad). Well, since only got these, then we ordered these lor.

I came to dine here last night, after much indecision as to what to have (go back to reliable Dragon-i, and guarantee a reasonably satisfying dinner, or try something new, which given that this was a Mall, I was extremely skeptical of). Well, guess what? I was right to be skeptical. The food at Rak Thai was beyond horrible, and expensive given what it was! I ordered the tom yum soup in a coconut and the basil chicken. First the soup. The picture showed a coconut overflowing with large prawns ... don't be fooled. I could not taste any coconut milk at all. All I could taste was sugar, salt and MSG. I kid you not. There were no spices whatsoever, the lemongrass looked like it was thrown in at the end of microwaving the soup instead of being infused through boiling. The chicked came out looking like something they dug out of the garbage out back and tasted accordingly horrible. To add insult to injury, I left hungry, had already spent my dinner quota money for the night, and spent the whole night hungry and my liver working overtime trying to expel whatever non-sense it was that got in to my system. This is a real pity. I was beginning to believe that international cuisine in Malaysia doesn't just go downhill after the first few months of opening, but I guess I was wrong. What is it that causes these restaurants to get lazy after a few months? Expensive ingredients? Perhaps the Malaysian tastebud is in part to blame -- the chefs start to cater to low standards to remain in business since their original craft isn't appreciated? Oh, and I missed the Thai iced tea -- which tasted bland and totally cheap.
wow, really that bad now? when i was there, erm, which was 1 yr ++ ago, the food there was still quite ok..
