This restaurant is recommended by a friend of Choumeizai who lives in Bangkok. Is it true that Thai cuisine recommended by Thai people must be good? Choumeizai gonna tell you now.
More interesting, the name of the restaurant is 'Local'. The restaurant is quite big and the decoration is delicate and beautiful, looks like a big villa of rich people.
The peak hours of the dinner time have just passed, there is no customer in the restaurant, the courtesy of the waiter is surprisingly excellent. Choumeizai is lazy, so he decides to follow the recommendations of the waiter, tastes the signature dishes of this restaurant.
There are many special drinks on the menu, Choumeizai orders lemongrass juice and fruit tea, not much sugar in the drinks but full of the taste of fruits, very natural.
Thai snack platter is one of their signature dishes, looks extremely beautiful, you will know it is delicious even if you haven't tasted it.
Every snack from the platter is quality and will leave a rich aftertaste, Choumeizai loves the lotus snack so much, very refreshing, doesn’t expect the petal of lotus is so delicious.
The first main course is curry crab, it has loads of crab meat so it is very tasty but also very spicy, which makes Choumeizai sweat a lot, good for eating with rice.
The second main course is also the superstar of the dinner: Deep fried fresh fish fillet.
The chef has put a lot of effort in making it, he won't deep fry the whole fish, but takes out the meat and fries separately, with cashew nuts, basil, ground lemon and lemongrass, so every piece of fish fillet is meaty and savory, the taste is out of the world.
Such an excellent meal costs around 2,000 Thai Bhat only, so cheap! Next time if Choumeizai comes to Bangkok, he will try other dishes for sure.
