Thai experience in White Elephant


A proper Thai experience has come on 100th feet Indiranagar, Bengaluru. This a cosy place where one can come and enjoy the food, this an deal place to come with a date and even more entertaining to come with your family on a Saturday night.  

Drinks:

I wanted to have a Classic Martini but I was introduced to Mid-night martini, this was my first time having a mid-night martini. The drink suited to name with respect to looks and taste. The drink is had to perfect mash up on gin that I required. I liked this a lot and made sure that this order was repeated once again.

Out of luck I had the Cosmopolitan here, it was slight stronger than what I usually have.



Starters:

Khao Pod Thod Naam Prik Pow was the first to be served to us. I know that by the name you did not understand anything, it was the same for me. It is babycorn tossed with Thai chilli paste served in rice tartlets,  I was shocked in the first bite as the balance of flavours was a sweet but just enough to relax with any drink.

Pla Yang, is spicy skewed grilled fish. We all could not believe that the fish used was basa, the fish was well cooked and the salad that accompanied that fish was also full of flavours that brought the flavours in the fish more alive. This was a real treat but I would have preferred this dish with prawns.

Kai Hor Bai Taey, marinated chicken wrapped in a pandana leaf. This dish looked as a veg dish when is come on the table. When we were told that the same was chicken, we were shocked. The chicken still needed a bit more flavours than what it had. The dip that was served along was a sweet dip that compliment the dish very well.

Manfrang Tod Samros, is crispy fried potatoes tossed. This dish went very well with the Cosmopolitan. I liked the way the dish was prepared, even thou you feel that you have felt the taste before but I like the way that the taste stays in the mouth.





Salad:

Yum Woonsen, which is spicy glass noodles salad. I loved the flavours in this dish, it was just a bust of flavours with each and every bite that I had. This salad was just what the doctor order but not the gym instructor.

Food:

For food I will first tell you what all we had and later tell you the best combinations that I felt. We had the Kaeng Keow Whan (Thai traditional green curry, fish), Kaeng red (Thai red curry, chicken), chef special in prawns.

I had Thai curry before but never like it. This is the first place that I liked Thai curry. The green curry went very well with the steamed noddles, this was the first time that I felt the curry complimented the noddles to what it deserved.

The red curry was a good combination with the Jasmine rice and normal rice.

For the prawns, I had all just like that because I loved the taste of prawns. The prawns was well done and that's all that I require with prawns.



Dessert:

We had chocolate and jack fruit ice cream. I liked both the ice cream, since it was made in house I liked it. The jack fruits had the raw flavour that I like.

Tub Tim Grob, is water chestnut served with sweetened Jasmine flavored coconut milk. This was again the first time that I actually liked it. The all flavours was a good blend and complimented each other with each bit.

Gruay Thod, deep fried banana with honey and sesame seeds. This dish looks easy to make but I know it is otherwise. This was yum, I liked the slight honey flavour that I got in the dish.






Entertainment:

Saturday night is a treat to one and all, as you get to witness, Mr Rakesh's closeup magic, right at your dinner table. Mr Rakesh has been practicing magic tricks from the past 10 years and that experience comes out in his act. He performed card, ring, mind reading, etc tricks to entertain all of us. The best part of his performance that he comes to you table to perform his tricks.
