A few years ago, I took a trip to Bangkok mainly for two things - to eat and to ride an elephant, which I have a fascination for (did you know they have really good memory? Proven fact!). It was one of the best trips I had taken so far because I got to experience a different culture and eat as much Thai food as I could in 5 days.
Imagine my bliss when I discovered the unassuming restaurant when it opened in Kapitolyo! Took me a couple of drive-bys before I finally decided to give it a try, because every time I pass by, there would be no one there.
I finally gave it a try and ordered a selection of items with different flavors namely the catfish salad, the Thai chicken basil, and the sweet spicy tilapia. I know it's a lot, but I was so excited that I couldn't decide what to get. So I just got them all. It certainly wasn't a wrong move. Despite having more than half of each order wrapped to-go, I thoroughly enjoyed each dish because it tasted as good as the ones I had in Bangkok. I even tried their dessert with the red sago (or pearls for some) with coconut cream, which I didn't have during our trip, but found yummy nonetheless. Happy Elephant definitely made me, well, a happy elephant. read more
