It was a special day, Mother's Day, and my son insisted that he "belanja" (treat) me for dinner on this day. So, we went to Bandar Puteri with the hope of finding a good Thai restaurant. We found this crowded restaurant, and you know, being Malaysian, we figured that somehow a restaurant that is packed must serve good food. Awet Thai, is a no frills restaurant in Bandar Puteri, Puchong.
Seafood Coconut Tomyam, we had was prepared really
hot and sour here, definitely not for those who have a weak tolerance.It was just the taste that suited the three of us. It was packed with prawns, fish and squid.
The staff told us the next dish, which I could not remember the name is their specialty so we decided to order. It was fried "siakap" (snapper) in a spicy gravy, which was appetizingly sourish. It was really good, and was something different from what we normally have. It came with extra gravy with such "umpph".
One of our family favourite dished is the deep fried "kangkung" (water spinach). The "kangkung" was crispy and was serve with a "mysterious" sauce (up till now I have no idea what it was), but satisfyingly delicious.
The last dish we had was the sambal petai, my favorite dish. The spiciness was just right, with medium size, fresh prawns, and it went so well, with the steaming hot rice.
Another interesting thing was , they served us with pandan water, in this very cute, silver cups.
As I said, Awet Thai is a no frills restaurant, but the food is definitely good. I would not mind a second trip. The best part of the day, was my 12 year old insisted on paying the bill, and the poor boy had only a 50 ringgit note, and needed his father to top up the rest :)
