thai @ mosman

It was around 1 PM when we were tired from the zoo and decided to go to the food court to get something to eat. Unfortunately, the queues were incredibly long and all the hot food we wanted to eat was sold out. We decided to leave the zoo and eat in the town just outside by the name of Mosman.

We honestly did not know what to eat because we were unfamiliar with the area, but we noticed a dainty Thai restaurant in a corner street. Sick of the usual Chinese and Vietnamese food, we decided to try something new. The last Thai restaurant, I ever remember visiting was at Sawasadee in the city.

Pad ba mee (hokkien noodles) with calamari @ $10.90

The small restaurant is run by 2 migrants from Thailand. We were immediately served ice cold water and service was polite and fast.

Beef fried rice @ $9.90

We ordered 4 dishes first, but decided to get an extra plate because the food was delicious. The dishes had what the Chinese call "wok hei" which gave memories of street stall food eaten in Asia.

Pad thai with beef @ $9.90

Aside from fried rice and stir fried noodles, there is a selection of entrees, Thai BBQ, Thai soups, salads and curries. If I had seen pineapple fried rice on the menu, I would've ordered that instead of the pad see-iw.

Pad see-iw (thick flat rice noodles) with beef @ $9.90

Seafood fried rice @ $10.90

Overall, it was a very enjoyable meal as meals came out fast and was seasoned well. I particularly liked the fried rice with the added lime juice. It was an enjoyable experience, and if I have the chance, I will dine there again.
