Simple Dinner at Bangkok Tomyam
No. Don’t be surprised. I’m not having my dinner in Bangkok. This is the name of a Thai seafood restaurant located in Bayan Lepas, Penang. The restaurant runs by Thai Muslim from southern Thailand with their own trademark. There are plenty of similar restaurants in Malaysia especially in the big cities like Kuala Lumpur, Penang and Johor. They normally operated in a simple restaurant with no air-conditioning but you’ll be surprised to see the crowd there. Their trademark is, for sure, Tomyam! And also some other delicious dishes that you can’t find from a typical Thai restaurant especially “Daging Merah” and soup (oxtail, beef & chicken soup).
Bangkok Tomyam is one of my favorite place for Thai seafood the southern style. I only had a simple dinner tonight with my wife. We ordered our usual dishes everytime we visit this place, seafood Tomyam and “Daging Merah”.
I like the tomyam here as they are not using tomyam paste for flavoring. ‘Daging Merah’ is a thin slice of beef that is fried to tenderness before stir frying it with onion and soya sauce. I’ve tried “Daging Merah” from many other places in Penang and can say that this one is the best.
Besides good food, it’s also well known for cleanliness and good & speedy service. You don’t need to wait so long to get your food even with all tables fully occupied.
