Thai basil chicken + rice + lemongrass drink ($8.90++)!
Tiong Bahru Thai cafe — pad krapow basil chicken with French beans, chillies, cucumber, tomato, jasmine rice. $8.90++ with lemongrass drink.
Lunch — Thai basil chicken at $8.90++ with lemongrass drink. 😋
What was on the black plate ($8.90++):
- Minced chicken pad krapow with French beans + chilli + onion + Thai basil leaves.
- Coriander + green leaf garnish.
- Jasmine rice mound on the right.
- Cucumber slices + tomato wedge for the cooling side.
Pad krapow + French beans = the upgraded version with the bean adds. More texture than the standard minced-only basil pork.
Came with a lemongrass tea/drink (not pictured) — the citronella-citrus Thai cooler.
$8.90++ = mid-tier Thai cafe pricing. Slightly above hawker.
Overall: 4.1 / 5. Basil-chilli punch was there, French beans added crunch, lemongrass drink balanced the heat. Solid Tiong Bahru Thai. 😋👍🏼
