Located in the luxurious Shangri-La Hotel, Siam Garden features emerald screens and geometric ceilings, as well as an abundance of Buddha statues, elephant sculptures and exotic chandeliers. The outdoor garden is grassy and the atmosphere is even more tranquil. While the environment is excellent, the production of Siam Garden is also convincing. This is not only the only "Thai Selected Restaurant" in Xi'an certified by the Ministry of Commerce of Thailand, but also the most authentic and rich variety of all Thai restaurants.
Siam Garden's menu is divided into Thai and Thai hot pot. Thai meals are served throughout the day and are a la carte for diners. Hot pot is slightly different in the morning and evening: during lunchtime, hot pot implements a set meal system, and each person can enjoy nearly 20 meat and vegetable hot dishes for about 100 yuan; For dinner, the hot pot is changed to a buffet format, and the price of about 200 yuan includes all the dishes in the venue, which is more complete than lunch.
Tom Yum soup is to Thai food what hairy belly is to hot pot, it is a must-order among must-orders. In addition to being seasoned with lemongrass leaves, lemon leaves and chili peppers, the soup is also made with a lot of coconut milk to make it mellow and smooth, and the entrance is fresh and sour with a hint of sweetness, which is the taste of authentic Tom Yum soup. The signature dish is fried and the chicken is marinated for a long time in advance, fried until crispy and then wrapped in pandan leaves, which not only retains the chicken juice well, but also absorbs the excess oil, so you won't feel greasy when eating. Among the staple dishes, pineapple fried rice is rich in seafood, and the Thai jasmine rice used is slender in shape and low viscosity, making the rice fluffy and refreshing.
Thai hot pot has a spicy soup base, tom yum gong soup base, seafood soup base and bak kut tea soup base, which correspond to the four flavor types of spicy, sour and spicy, fresh and fragrant and medicinal food. Most of the hot dishes are fresh every day, and the quality is not bad. In addition to the common ingredients such as green shrimp, fish fillet, and mussels in Thai hot pot, the store also serves Chinese hot pot dishes such as hairy tripe, beef balls, and luncheon meat, so there is basically no problem of "not getting used to eating".
The Siam Garden tables are spaced widely, making dining comfort and privacy relatively good. The restaurant features large round tables and long square tables, which are suitable for business invitations or gatherings of multiple people. The service staff are uniformly dressed in Thai costumes, and customers will greet them warmly in Thai after entering the door, and they will ask if there is any taboo food when ordering, but there is a shortage of manpower, and the speed will drop during peak hours, and there will be a certain delay in ordering and serving.
