WHY GO

Thai cuisine wondrously mixes sweet, sour, spicy, and salty, making the mouth water at the thought of it. Benjarong is a marvellous showcase for this, bar none.

TATLER TIPS

• The fresh spring rolls with chicken, glass noodles, mint, and basil are a healthy starter.

• The chicken, galangal, lime, and mushrooms in coconut milk soup is a great alternativ­e to tom yum.

• The pomelo salad with chicken and shrimp in roasted chilli paste is an unavoidabl­e temptation.

• The massaman beef curry with cashews, potatoes and onions, the steamed lapu-lapu in coriander, lime, chilli and garlic, the water chestnut and tapioca pearl pudding; one can wax eloquent about these Thai staples, but high-flown language will not beat the actual tasting of each and every one.
