Absolutely delighted by the explosion of flavors in every bite! The aromatic blend of herbs and spices in the Thai dishes transported my taste buds to a culinary paradise. Each dish showcased the chef's expertise. The freshness of ingredients and impeccable presentation added to the overall dining experience. A definite must-try for anyone craving a different Thai culinary adventure! Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person RM 40–60 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes Pork Jowl
Best meal we had on our month long vacation in Asia. We got the set menu and it was absolutely fantastic. I expect this restaurant to earn a Michelin star or recommendation. Yes, it is that good. Best clams I have ever been served. Maybe the best two mackerel dishes as well. We also loved the hibiscus (roselle) ginger beer that is brewed by the chefs. I brew myself and this had excellent flavor. The prix fix meal also came with a wonderful curry, rice, and a dessert. I recommend this place for a high end culinary experience. Expect to pay a bit more for this creative take on Thai food. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person RM 60–80 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Not Authentic Thai, Not Fusion. If you are looking for classic/traditional Thai then this is probably not the place for you. However if you are familiar with Thai food and looking for a chef brave enough to challenge and explore the techniques and ingredients of the classics, you have found the place. The dishes are meticulously prepared with great care for the balance of flavours and textures in the dishes, using the best quality and freshest ingredients, Beautifully presented in a comfortable air conditioned restaurant with an open kitchen. Everything we ordered was exquisite, we especially enjoyed the Chang Mai pork belly, The home brewed ginger beer is also a must. Thankyou for the experience, all the food was elevated from any of the traditional dishes that we have experience over the last 12 years visiting thailand. Truly a unique culinary experience.

The food was good , the service was good. This is a local hidden gem . Please note that they are serving their interpretation of Thai food . This is not the right restaurant if you are looking for a gluten-free or vegan meal. However, if you are looking for a chill time over some good food , this place is it . It's a laid-back environment and pretty nice simple decor. The dishes were all pretty good, and their home brewed ginger beer, too . The menu changes monthly, so if i am back in the hood, I would come back . Hoping they do well . It's nice to see the food scene in Ipoh growing, too!

Really a hidden gem in town serving tasty thai dishes. I wouldn't say it is the best but definitely worth your time here, as they will cook you dishes right after the order instead of serving you prepared food. Might be a bit slow (since there are just a few ppl to do everything) but you can spend your time in this comfortable place while smelling the food that is going to be served on your table.

Chanced upon this charming set up run by a young couple and I must say their interpretation of Thai food is amazing! As they have claimed - not authentic, not fusion but every dish is worth a mention. Come by and check them out because I will definitely be back! 😋😋😋 Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person RM 40–60 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Pleasantly surprised with the dishes! Their own brewed ginger beer is refreshing. I love the lychee salad. Their Thai food is not those spicy spicy type. I like the delicate taste and balance in the ingredients and the flavouring. They mentioned they change the menu every 2 months, definitely a plus point. Would definitely come back again !

PRE BOOKING Before coming here, had noticed there were some very negative reviews/ low ratings. BUT we also read comments from the owner himself. Some call it arrogant but I personally think that the owner must have certain level of confidence with his work else he won't be so bold when confronting those negative reviewers. After all, no food can be so bad until it deserves a 1 star rating especially plenty had given high ratings. So I read through all disclaimers/ advices/conditions/ menu given thru website + whatsapp and proceed with booking. It was easy. I was running late on that day, texted the restaurant to inform and they replied promptly. Not a single issue. ORDERS AND DINING Despite the owner being called as arrogant, he was actually really polite (still is). We also remember that he is the only one cooking and taking orders. So we understand why he had mentioned about don't ask the unnecessary. We ordered based on his recommendation for 4 adults and 1 toddler. The recommended amount of food was just right, which covered from appetiser to dessert + alcoholic drinks. But most important, it's delicious, flavorful and unique. Ingredients are fresh and curated. The effort/ passion of the person preparing and cook is very much reflected in the dish. Chef also came to our table to check if everything was okay. PRICE Reasonable and the most expensive dish in menu was not more than 40. Dining here is very close to having a private chef actually. The pricing is justified by the quality of food. And really, 50 cent size portion as claimed by some reviewers did not/ does not exist ! CONCLUSION I will not tell you that this resto has the "best food / taste" because taste is very subjective. But I've brought my two fussiest eater (local senior parents who are very particular woth flavours and sensitive to price). Both of them love this place and their food. Other than food, we also admire the owner's authenticity and level of confidence on his work. Will definitely return :) Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person RM 40–60 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
