Yada Thai Cuisine Restaurant at Burmah Road, Penang

We just came back from Thailand! WHAT A GREAT MISSION TRIP IT WAS. We stayed with the kids in a Christian Orphanage and eat the kind of food they eat everyday. We are blessed beyond anything. Oh and we loved loved the food there in this land of sawadeekaaa! So, here another Thai food review on a Thai restaurant that just started not too long ago :)

This one is also, another online meal. This time through LivingSocial. 4 pax 5 course meal at only RM36!  Get to try new restaurant, why not! She has this habit of spending on these online websites. I have no idea whether its a good thing or not also. Oh well, as long as it's still under control, I guess. Haha. 

Anyways, we were there with her sister and brother in law over dinner and we ordered extra one dish as the set ones are pretty dry. Let's see what we both think of this Thai Cuisine Restaurant in Penang. I have to say that Penang is over populated with Thai Restaurants. You can easily find them at almost every corner in Penang. So, I guess, our standards for Thai Food is pretty high, considering that she loves LOVES Thai food and we eat them quite often. Haha :)

Very few tables set-up in quite a spacious shop. It's not that crowded for sure. 

Stir Fry Kangkung with Sambal

He says: Kinda like this one. Just nice and not so oily.

She says: For a kangkung dish, it's pretty sucky. Nothing unique/special at all. Quite bland too actually.

Spicy Jelly Noodles with Kerabu

He says: A mixture of spiciness, sourness and sweetness. Like this one although I'm not a huge fan of this dish.

She says: Love this dish to the max! It's sour and sweet and a lil spicy. Okay, maybe not a lil spicy. I think it's pretty spicy but it's sooo good! I think the fish sauce that they use in this dish makes it very yummy. VERY YUMMY!

Stir Fry Lala Clams with Special Sauce

He says: Hahaha lala! Just okay..

She says: Seafood lover, me! These clams are pretty okay. Nothing special too.

Fried Pork with Garlic

He says: I like like like this one.. Smells really good.

She says: Another favorite of mine. The garlic-ish sauce that accompanies the pork is super delicious! I didn't like the pork meat so much though. It's too hard. So hard to chew and swallow! Definitely overcooked!

Tomyam Seafood Soup

He says: Just so so.. Not creamy, sour and spicy enough as it looks.

She says: At first, it looks creamy and looks so good. But I didn't like it. I had like only less than 10 spoonful of it. Not spicy enough. Not sour enough. The tomyam taste to it is also so not there. BIG no-no for me.

Green Curry Chicken

He says: No no.. This does not taste like green curryy!

She says: This one has a very weird/unique taste. I don't even know if I hate it or love it. I think I'm somewhere in between. It's pretty nice. It doesn't taste like any normal green curry I've tasted.

Thab Thim Krop (Thai Dessert with Water Chestnut and Jackfruit)

He says: Love it! =D

She says: Quite nice. Quite only la. Nothing really great! I think it should be a bit sweeter! :)

We eat so much Thai food that we can be Thai people legally. No joke. We eat way too much of thai food. If she were to invest in opening up a restaurant, it will definitely 110% be Thai Restaurant! CONFIRM!

Dinner date with his family! In fact, it was his parents whom suggested this place to us. I tell you, spend time with your family and you'll be surprised of certain things that you will find out/learn. It's amazing.

We both love family dinners! First because bonding with family is what matters most in both our lives. Two because we get to order more choices of food and no need struggle to finish the food. Thirs is because we don't have to pay (at least not yet) :)

We both have never heard/seen about this place, at all. It's almost like the whole Penang Island, any corner got Thai Food, we both sure know ehh. Well, sort of. Such thai food stalker we are. Anyways, time for some comments on the mummum.

Tomyam Seafood a.k.a Tomyam Talel - RM35

He says: Sawadeekap! This tomyam, good + good! Its more to 'lemak' type of tomyam but you can also taste the sourness and spiciness at the same time. =D 

She says: Thumbs up! It's sour and spicy at the balanced ratio. Also, one thing I really like about this soup is that it's quite creamy/milky/smooth. Very pleasant feeling while drinking this one.

Green Curry Chicken a.k.a Kan Koy Wan - RM15

He says: My mum's favourite! haha. Smells great but the taste is just so so.  It's my mum's favourite though!

She says: Chicken meat is not hard and that's a good sign. The curry is nice. I wouldn't say extraordinary great and different. But it is towards the nice and will-order-again-perhaps!

Prawn Cake a.k.a Tot Man Kun (6 pieces) - RM24

He says: My favourite! Garing tau! Recommended! =D

She says: This is very yummy! Very crunchy on the outside and pretty soft on the inside. It almost tasted like fish balls in donuts' form. I prefer eating this on its own than to eat it with rice! Order this as appetizer! TOTALLY YUMS.

Eggplant (brinjal) with minced pork and bean paste - RM8

He says: Hmmmm.. Not a big fan of brinjals but the sauce tastes quite good. 

She says: I'm an ok-ok person with brinjal. Got seasons eh. Sometimes I like it and other times, I just won't bother having it. The way they cook it with minced pork and bean paste somehow makes it really appetizing. Yeah, APPETIZING is the perfect word to describe it. I bet for those who doesn't eat eggplant, after you try this dish, you might just fall in love with it :))

Otak-Otak a.k.a Hor Muk - RM15

He says: Otak-otak! The taste of the santan in the  is really strong but its not bad. Quite pricey though..

She says: Pretty normal to me. I still think that otak-otak is overpriced in every Thai restaurant. I mean, it's like so small and so pricey for its size. And its a dish where you eat one mouthful and you have to go back for more!

Steamed Fish Thai Style - RM40

He says: YOU GOTTA TRY THIS. It's amazing, really. Its spicy and soury to the perfection!

She says: The BOMB of the night. I can really go speechless with this one. The sauce/soup/gravy is mindblowing! It's sooooo good. So good that as I'm commenting on it, my saliva literally feels gathered in my throat. AHH! And the fish is pretty huge, so I would say that RM40 for this dish is totally worth it! TOTALLLY! Oh, and it's really spicy! LIKE REALLY REALLY SPICY! No kidding!
