Came here for a celebration with my family. Expected more but was very disappointed. I understand that they are short staff and it’s a weekend dinner but still it’s not acceptable. …

I had a very shocking and unhygienic experience at this restaurant. I ordered the Tom Yam soup, which was served in a wooden box with a candle/gel burner to keep it warm. The moment the staff lit the burner, cockroaches started crawling out from inside the wooden box. This is completely unacceptable for any dining place. It shows very poor hygiene and food safety practices. I hope the restaurant will seriously look into their cleanliness, especially the wooden serving boxes, and take proper pest control measures. Until then, I would strongly advise customers to check their food and serving equipment before eating.

Visited Bangkok bistro and bar to sample their boat noodles, as recommended by a friend. The establishment also offers mookata, which I intend to try on a future visit. …

Boat noodles were decent. Fries seemed to be laden with MSG rather than salted egg sauce. Mango ice cream was very sweet🍨 the cashier charged us extra for bottled water we didn't order so check the bill when paying.
Kwan Wei Jie
Good tom yum soup, though the herbal one is abit more sweet side but still palatable. They have choice of Rice and Glass Noddles, though I prefer the springy yellow noodle type, but still good to enjoy with their soups. Must try: their pork belly with Honey Mustard Sauce and chicken BBQ Skewer!
