JIM THOMPSON: A THAI RESTAURANT

45 Minden Road, S(248817) TEL: 6475 6088 jimthompson.com

Classics here are cooked using fresh produce and herbs and with authentic Thai flair. The tom yum goong and pad Thai are all mustorders. Leave room for desserts such as tab tim grob (crunchy water chestnut cubes coated with tapioca flour and served in chilled coconut milk) and steamed banana in syrup topped with coconut milk. Traditional Thai dancers weave through the dining room to the sounds of instrumental music at dinner, making for a culturally inspired experience that’ll make you want to linger.
