Recall Siam Kim's slogan: Let the tip of the tongue reach Thailand before the foot. The restaurant's executive chef is Arnong, who has been working in Thailand for more than 20 years, and his most confident cuisine is curry. However, even with a Thai chef in charge, the traces of Siam's improvement are still very heavy, although it is not unrecognizable, but it is still a long way from being remembered for its deliciousness.
The yellow curry of Memories of Siam is infused with a lot of coconut milk and evaporated milk, which is sweeter and more oily, making it perfect for rice. The most recommended way to eat is to fry with crab, the restaurant uses Burmese meat crab, the body is round, the shell is hard and the meat is thick, and the meat is sweet and sweet, but the freshness of the ingredients in the store needs to be improved, and the crab meat is not fresh enough to affect the feeling of eating. Another ancient method of crab curry is to add egg flakes and minced garlic to the sauce, which has a thicker texture, but the curry flavor is relatively weakened, and if you prefer a curry dish with a strong flavor, it is not recommended to order the ancient method.
Tom Yum Gong soup is one of the most reminiscent dishes in Siam, with pork bones and chicken simmered for eight hours as a base in broth, with plenty of lemongrass and lemon leaves, and a low ratio of coconut milk and evaporated milk, so the sweetness is more astringent, while the sour and spicy flavors are abundant, full of energy, and the mouth is full of warmth after drinking. The fly in the ointment is still the problem of ingredients, although there are 5-6 prawns in the pot, but the meat is not aromatic, more woody, the head and neck part has been broken into powder, and there is no small seafood, and the vegetables are only one kind of straw mushroom, which looks too stingy.
There are currently three branches in Siam, two of which have the word "gold" on the back, which belong to the high-end line, and are higher than the other in terms of environment, service, plating and delicacy of dishes. For example, the most famous street food in Thailand, green papaya salad, is only sweet, and the papaya is thick and hard, and the peanut kernels sprinkled on it reveal the smell of aging, which is really hard to swallow. On the other hand, the two "golden" stores in West Lake and Raffles, although there are some flaws, the overall taste is still outstanding and sour and spicy. Remembering Siam King also has a cocktail bar for sipping. Usually, there is basically no queue for meals, but the West Lake store is in the scenic area, and if you drive there, you may encounter traffic jams.
