I was impressed by the array of more than 150 types of beers while walking beside the rows of chillers, it was awe-inspiring especially since they had beers of different tastes like sour.

Taking notice of what was hung on the wall we noticed numerous kinds of Breweries indicated. With so many different types of beers in the chiller, it's evident too.

Beer Brands & Breweries

While at the side of the chiller, they have indicated the type and taste of Alcohol, allowing customers to choose what they like. In this case, this section of beers are sour and gose.

Yes! Here's some Mou Tai from the bottle.

The Cat

We were drawn to the cute mascot and the local snack "Kueh Salat". It was said to be a National Day Drink. The colour was dark purple.

Kueh Salat

I was thrilled when I saw that their menu was Thai Food by Nummun Thai Kitchen as this Thai Food place is one of my top choices for Thai Cuisine.

We had Grilled Pork Skewers for Appetizers, better known as "Moo Ping". The grilled sweet-tasting Skewers were inviting. The marinade with the grilling process caramelized the sugar, adding a delightful smoky char to the meat. We love the moist and succulent texture of the Skewers.

The given sauce on the other hand was sweet and a tad spicy. Dipping them into the dipping sauce and enhancing the overall experience.

Here comes the most iconic dishes of Thai Cuisine, Pad Thai. It is known for its perfect balance of flavours and texture.

Phad Thai - $10

We ordered the Chicken Pad Thai and we simply enjoyed the harmonious blend of sweetness, saltiness and sour taste. Its aroma and texture were already good enough to appeal to us.

Whao I love that!

Pork Trotter Rice is also known as Khao Kha Moo in Thai Cuisine, is a comfort food providing a rich and hearty dining experience. No doubt that the rice did not come with much gravy, the pork trotter was already yummy in its deep, savoury flavours. The pork trotters was tender and the slow cooking process infused the meat with a complex blend of sweet, and saltiness, making each bite incredibly flavourful.

The Papaya Salad, also known as Som Tum, is a vibrant & refreshing dish. The crispy & shredded green papaya provides a crunchy texture complemented by the sweet and tangy dressing made of fish sauce, lime juice etc. Tomatoes & peanuts elevated the salad as well as a kick of heat from the Thai Chilies, creating a delightful interplay of sweet, sour, salty and spicy notes. This is a perfect starter.

Be it a light bite or a full meal, if you enjoy Thai Food, these are two of the recommendations for the mains on their menu.
