Ploy

WHY GO

A heavenly marriage of two distinct flavour profiles – Japanese and Thai – has resulted in the birth of Ploy. Come here and experience a mix, match and fusion of flavours and styles from these food-rich countries.

WHAT TO ORDER

The salt and pepper cuttlefish comes with finely sliced chilli but with a little less salt and pepper than one might expect. The crispy squid is very tasty as it is deep fried long enough to make it crunchy.

Another noteworthy dish is the salad of yummy pla duk fu or crispy catfish with green mango salad. The finely mashed catfish has the consistency of flaky candy floss when cut to access the green mango salad beneath.

For mains, choose the Ploy black fried rice, which is slightly crunchy with a hint of squid thanks to the black ink. The rice is accompanied by very lightly cooked prawns and topped with an egg yolk in half an eggshell. Another main course to try is the beef ribs, which are beautifully soft and tender thanks to the 12 hours of braising, and flavoured with a sweet tomato, onion and lemongrass sauce.

Liquid nitrogen ice-cream is a house specialty and is freshly prepared. The vanilla ice-cream is delicious and you can taste the richness of both the cream and vanilla pods.
