If I had to pick a favourite dish at Little Thai Kitchen in Dataran Sunway, it would be the Phad Suki Hang (RM12.90) – an uncommon Thai fried noodles that comes in a soup or dry version. The one I tried at Little Thai Kitchen was delicious; charred bits, plenty of meat and vegetables and a strong salty-rich flavour from the fermented beancurd.
Phad Suki Hang
Ka Moo (braised pork leg)
Another pick of mine here would be the Ka Moo, also known as braised pork leg (RM15.90 – small, RM25.90 – large) where the meat is stewed in gravy till tender and the skin, gelatinous. I wasn’t as excited about the pork skewers (RM9.90 for three sticks) as they weren’t as juicy as I liked them to be. A bit more fat and char would have been better, I feel.
Pork skewers
Som Tam (green papaya salad)
Little Thai Kitchen’s green papaya salad (RM6.90) was refreshing and of a generous portion, though I thought they would have done with a bit more tang and sweetness. This was decent but somehow lacking that robustness that Thai salads are known for.
Tom Yum Ta Lay
Tom Yum Ta Lay (RM13.90) was a generous serve of clear tomyum broth and seafood, which gave it a sweet and subtly rich flavour. Though I’m generally a fan of red and cream based soups, I thought this one was decent.
Green curry chicken
Green curry varies as we move from different places around Thailand, and I always liked the version from central Thailand better. There’s a better balance between richness, aroma and spiciness. Little Thai Kitchen’s green curry chicken (RM13.90) was adequately thick but lacked spice and aroma.
Red ruby (tub tim krob)
Dessert was the red ruby (tub tim krob), a refreshing treat given how our weather can get quite crazy sometimes. It was a sauna that afternoon so this was much needed. I thought it could use more coconut milk and syrup, as this was slightly bland.
Overall, a few hits and misses but not too bad an experience. Affordable prices too.
Ambiance: 6/10
Price: 6.5/10
Food: 6/10 (non halal)
Verdict: Try the Phad Suki Hang if you’re game for something different.
