Siam Samrarn, 1/79 Boundary Street, WEST END QLD 4101
It's
a public holiday in Brisbane today and .a public holiday equals
indulgence for us bunnies Our indulgence started last night after
work with buffalo wings and homemade chocolate cake drizzled with
thick dark chocolate ganache.
We
started our day with chocolate cake and glasses of milk (yes),
followed by a nice day trip to Montville.
I
honestly didn't think that we would have any dinner after what we've
eaten during the day but it's been a while since our Thailand trip
and my brain was telling me that I had huge cravings for some good
Thai food. I couldn't help but google what the available options are.
We
ended up going to Siam Samrarn. Located in a shopping centre in West
End, it's not a place that we would take particular notice of, but it
seemed really popular.
The
other travel bunnie had left the deciding power in my hands and we
all know that I'm by far the less sensible one in the relationship.
We
stared our meal with coconut prawns ($9.50) and a glass of cold Thai
milk tea ($4.90), but our meal didn't get serious until our mains.
When our waitress took out Thai BBQ chicken ($18.90), Chicken Pad
Thai ($17.90) and Soft shell crab with curry ($25.50), our pupils
dilated. We wouldn't pick a favourite. The servings were generous.
Initially we were worried that we wouldn't be able to finish the
food, but all dishes tasted delicious. So delicious that I HAD to
order Durian with coconut rice ($8). I normally would opt for mango
but as it's not in season, I thought durian would be just fine. Turns
out, durian tasted even better. The flavour was exotic and the
texture was rich yet not sickening.
You
know, I wouldn't usually go back to the same restaurant twice unless
it's left me with exceptional impression, but this time, Siam
Samrarn, I can see myself going back again and again.
The
prices quoted are higher than usual due to the public holiday rate
but I honestly believe that this place is great value for money.
Total
Bunnie Dollars Spent: $84.70
