We celebrated Dad’s birthday at Busaba.
A relatively new Thai restaurant around the Bangsar block, I like Busaba for its creative Thai fusion recipes. The food is flavorful, but the preparation is sometimes hit or miss. Very heartwarming food, however, and apt for a family dinner or get together with friends.
This is my second round at Busaba, my earlier review was brief and almost a year ago on 26 January 2011 – it was more a touch and go.
We started with appetizers:
– Thai Fish Cakes –
Main dishes eaten with fragrant steam Thai rice:
– Chicken cutlets wrapped in Pandan leaves with sweet chilli dip –
–Stir fried tofu with basil leaves –
– Salted egg yolk fish balls with salted fish –
– Stir fried Kailan –
When it came to desserts, we tried:
– Steam Tapioca (my new favourite) –
– Two most popular Thai desserts: Tub Tim Krob and Mango Sticky Rice –
Verdict: Heavenly Thai! Not your usual authentic menu, but definitely worth your time.
