Galangal in Bishan

Galangal is a halal-certified Thai restaurant located in Bishan Club House, just a stone's throw away from Bishan Sports Hall.

Galangal, taste the flavours of Thailand

While locating the restaurant may be tricky, keep looking for the Neon lights with flowers just beside the basketball court.

Eye Catching Decors

The Floral Theme makes the cafe so beautiful. As we stepped into the restaurant, we were greeted by the wall of roses, the environment gives a very lovely & comfortable feel to dine in. With the pinkish splash of colours, especially with flower decoration at this corner, I would have thought that there was an event going on for ROM (Registry of Marriage). This will be good corner to bring your partner to romance your date too.

I can't wait to have my Thai Food. Let's take a look at the menu.

It's too beautiful not to take pictures against the wall of roses! 

The glass of Iced Lemongrass Tea was refreshing and good for quenching thirst.

 While we were expecting the usual circular-shaped fish cake, Galangal had theirs served with a lemongrass stalk. It's a perfect dish for group sharing and dip them in the sweet chili sauce.

Enjoy the flavourful and aromatic appetizers made of Prawn paste patty blended with Thai Herbs & Spices. If you are ordering Appetizers for sharing, these are not to be missed. The Thai Prawn Cakes were yummy and had a crispy outer layer.

Another Popular and flavourful dish that features stir-fried chicken with Thai Basil, garlic, chilli and a savoury sauce, also better known as "Pad Krapow Gai". The aromatic dish is quick to prepare and offers a perfect balance of spicy, savoury and slightly sweet flavours. Grab a bowl of rice and enjoy them.

What a fantastic way to combine the succulent flavours of seafood with the spicy kick of Thai chilli. The Prawns & beautifully cut Squid were generously coated in sauce allowing the flavours to permeate them. It's good for pairing with a bowl of pearl white rice.
