Lunch at Sabai ( Thai Cuisine)

This is really a very belated article as have not work on it since April.

I had brought my mum and relatives to the Thai restaurant located at Takashimaya level 4. The name of the restaurant is Sabai and it was featured in a newspaper review. Hence the decision to bring them there as firstly my mum like Thai food and secondly going to try a new place.

The below is a picture of the entrance.

A picture of one of the displays in the interior of the place.
After reviewing the menu, we decided to order a few items to share which are shown in the following photos.
The first dish to arrive is the seafood tom yum soup. The soup is delivered on top of a flame to ensure the soup is still hot when is served to us.
As can be seen, the soup is very clear which does not look very hot. However believe me when we had the soup it was really spicy. The soup was spicy enough and it had a sufficient sourness which give a very strong flavour and unforgettable flavour.
This was really a very excellent soup.


The next dish is the chicken fried with dried chili. This chicken was deep fried to a crisp and it went well with the dried chili.
The next dish is the boneless whole grouper cooked in Thai sauce. This dish was one of the best I had. They had debone the fish from the tail to nearly the head and they had curved up the meat and deep fried it. Hence from the fist glance of the picture, it looks like there is only the fish head.

The meat was very tender on the interior in spite of the exterior was very crispy and the sauce complimented the fish taste very well.

The below is the scallop cooked in a dry curry style. This was the dish which was not up to the expectation. There was nothing outstanding in this dish.


The below is the sambal Kang Kong. It was quite good.


The below is the deset buffet spread which is charged at 8 bucks. There is about 15 different desert items to choose from. My family really love the desert as it was very well prepared especially for the deserts which contained coconut milk.

In my opinion, if you are a desert loving person, you should have it. The sequent photos are some of the items that were taken from the selection.



In summary, my family really enjoyed the food and mention it was one of the best Thai food they have had. The majority of the dishes were excellent. The only downside is the pricing is on the expensive range.
