Soi Thai Soi Nice!
Soi Thai Soi Nice at JEM, Jurong East: the standout fried pork belly with spicy dip, phad thai, clear tom yam soup and a refreshing nutmeg drink. Legit Thai, family favourite.
Dinner at Soi Thai Soi Nice, the JEM (Jurong East) outlet! There are other outlets at Seletar Mall and Alexandra too. A popular place among families, especially for weekend dinners. 😋
Soi Thai Soi Nice is a casual Thai chain doing accessible, crowd-pleasing Thai mains in a mall setting, the kind of reliable family Thai dinner spot.
I personally highly recommend the fried pork belly, so succulent and tasty, crisp on the outside, juicy within, served with a spicy dip that cuts the richness. Legit! This was the standout of the meal.
The phad thai was not too bad as well, the stir-fried rice noodles with the tamarind-and-fish-sauce balance, the Thai-cuisine ambassador dish:
The clear tom yam soup, with a decent spicy level, the hot-and-sour herbal soup in its clear (not coconut-creamy) form, fragrant with lemongrass, galangal and lime leaf:
The nutmeg drink, a first-time try, tasted quite refreshing and cooling, the kind of unusual local-Thai beverage worth ordering for the novelty:
A solid, accessible Thai spread, the fried pork belly the clear winner. Definitely worth a (re)visit for legit Thai food.

Overall: 4.3 / 5. 😋👍🏼 The succulent fried pork belly with spicy dip was the standout. Legit Thai, would re-visit.
