Mango Tree, a very successful Thai brand has launched its first Mango Tree Bistrobar in India at Bangalore. Yesterday, me and some friends visited the Thai restaurant and lounge to try their offerings...
The interiors are spacious and pleasing. I liked how they displayed Thai recipes on the ceiling...
There are some interesting curios too...
I was eager to try their Thai bistronomy and mixology...
I ordered the Mango Tree special Woodoo Martini. Not bad...
Virgin Mint Mojito...
The Tom Yum Goong prawn soup was most amazing...
Satay Paneer served with peanut sauce tasted as good as it looked...
Por Pia Phak deep fried veg spring rolls...
Thod Mun Pla fish cake...
Thod Mun Goong Shrimp Cake with lemongrass skewers...
Beer to wash the food down...
Gai Yang Ta Krai, traditional Thai grilled chicken with lemongrass...
For main course, we had had Thai Goong, stir fried noodles with prawns in tamarind sauce...
Gaeng Phed Goong, Thai red curry with prawns...
Gaeng Kiew Wan Goong, Thai yellow curry with prawns...
The aromatic Jasmine rice was awesome...
Time for desserts. Khao Niew Mamuang, Mango served with sweetened sticky rice...
This is how it looks when you cut open the deep fired ice cream... Wondering how they did it? Here's the recipe.
The smiles after a highly satisfying lunch...
Well, dear Shiju, I see your waistline is not suffering while Manju is taking care of Rohan in Kerala. The meal look wonderful and your photos are no less so. I eat Thai very often. My beloved friends at Manivanh Thai in San Francisco even put a dish named after me - "Carmen's Special" on the menu when they printed new ones a couple of years ago. I was very touched when I came home from India and saw that.
ReplyDeleteThat's an interesting head. The cracking makes great patterns.
ReplyDeleteA lovely b&w photo.
