linda 3 March 2008 Dinner, Laos, Sydney, West, Thai No Comment  Print This Post  Email This Post

Every Saturday morning, Howard and I embark on our ritual of meeting up in Cabramatta . We walk around to see which restaurants are not crammed with people and ones which we have not tried before.

We spot an empty restaurant at some dodgy corner, succumbing to the idea that a deserted restaurant serves less than ideal food, then finally trudge to Bangkok Thai Cuisine, which is admittedly the busiest food stall located inside the hustle and bustle of BKK shopping Centre.

We quickly take our spot in the queue then eye the extensive pictured menu displayed above our head. This time since I wasn’t as hungry as usual, we decided to share a dish.

Shrimp Paste Fried Rice $9.00

After waiting patiently at our communal table for about 20 minutes, a nearby diner nudged us and indicated to the waving restaurant owner, who handed us our dish. To be honest, we’ve had this dish countless of times and fortunately the quality and taste has always maintained its standard. The rice fried with a good quantity of salty shrimp paste which ensures that the flavour doesn’t overwhelm the dish, combined with the grilled chinese sausage, sweet char siu pork, pan fried prawns and omelette proves to be a burst of flavour in your mouth with each bite. To cool down the palate, the chef kindly adds crispy and sweet spanish onion, cucumber and slices of green mango.

Addictive spicy Satay to go with the fried rice
