Eat Drink Thai's signature attraction is its steaming seafood pot - a whole barramundi, plus a substantial serving of tiger prawns, squid & mussels, bathed in the patron's pick of Thai-inspired broth (red tom yum, clear tom yum, the spicier tom sapp, tom kha, sourish kaeng som curry, or ma nao with chilli, garlic & lime). The largesse of the ocean tastes fresh, with the sizable fish & fleshy crustaceans ranking as the stars, complemented by our choice of the tom kha coconut milk soup, a light, mild & clean-tasting base. Complemented by corn & tomatoes, it's an honest bargain at RM59 for a portion that'll easily satiate three.
For a less elaborate meal, classics like hard-boiled eggs in tamarind sauce (RM9), pad thai (RM12) & stir-fried chicken with petai (RM13) work well enough if you favour a slant to Thai street fare that's slightly more mellow in flavour than the norm.
