I only ordered their Pad Thai and Thai Milk Tea. Their Milk Tea is decent but a bit bland for my taste (I like the spices in the tea base on the heavy side). The Pad Thai is good but there is a weird almost like a cane vinegar after-taste to it. It's not a big deal for me, though. Overall this is still a decent place to have a quick Thai-fix.

The satay were good, came out room temperature, which was a bit of a let down. We had ordered two orders. For mains, they are sharing size, so we ordered 3 meats, lemongrass chicken, pork ribs and pork belly. My favorites of the 3 was the pork ribs. Tender and great flavor. A little on the sweet size. The chicken was good too. The pork belly were fairly thin, so they dried out quickly. The biggest disappointment was the crab fried rice. The crab tasted dry? As if it had been sitting out for a while or overcooked. We also had the mango sticky rice which was good. Mangos were a bit sour and a bit too much white sauce, maybe to compensate for the sourness? Overall beautiful dining room. The bar looks great. This place has a chance to be really great. Will give it another try.

But while on vacation, my very good friend who loves Thai food planned a dinner outing for a bunch of us. I've noticed whenever in Manila, we've ate at several Thai Restaurants. By far, she has chosen the best Thai Restaurant I've ever been to!!!! Located in the G/F of the hotel lobby, I guess you could say it's always safe to check out the website before indulging on your upcoming dinner. My friend also advised "Smart Casual" is required for dress attire and that reservation would be for a party of 6 at 6pm. It was the most convenient and easy way to dinner as we walked from our Ascott Hotel towards the Dusit Thani. There is security prior to entrance, and this hotel is what you call Grande Entrance! From the front desk it was so nice and elegant. Even as I was just walking by, I came across an Asian Carrier Cabin Crew and thought how lucky for them to have hotel accommodations here. Anyways. Let's say 2 hours of dinner time because there is actually 2 dinner seating's for the restaurant. 6pm and 8pm. Take a look at every dish and appetizer ordered because it was beautifully prepared, indescribable with words, what looks like a meal that was prepared in Thailand. I will have a hard time dining out at another Thai restaurant back home in Honolulu! The customer service, all the servers, the atmosphere, the decorations were all so amazing. Everyone was full of smiles and friendliness. I will definitely be back again soon.

Chef Watcharaphon "Ja" Yongbanthom made a guest appearance on Iron Chef, which is one of the cooking shows that I enjoy watching. Everything we had reminded us of Bangkok, but with an exquisite dish presentation. We described all of the dishes that we enjoyed eating in Bangkok, and she knew exactly what we were talking about since she is Thai. I apologize for not knowing the names of our dishes, despite our server telling and showing us what it is called in their menu. I love starting with a pomelo salad. My niece likes chicken satay. My cousin ordered the soft shell crab curry. My aunt likes steamed fish with lemon and fish sauce on the side. I like Pad Thai. We ate everything family style so that we could taste each other's choices. For dessert, my niece had coconut ice cream within a ball of dark and white chocolate. My aunt had something similar to a halo halo. My cousin was given a complimentary mango with sticky rice for her birthday. I guiltfully had a sampler plate of desserts all to myself and enjoyed every single calorie I gained.

It's a bit hard to find since its hidden on a side street behind Fersal Hotel , which is just in front of A-Venue mall. Just keep walking and you'll be greeted by the smokey grill, colorful lights and Makati's foodie crowd. As soon as I stepped inside, I already knew I was going to like this place. It's like El Chupa only cleaner, less dingy and has more of a beach bum kind of feel. (I think it's the wooden floorboards and colorful lights.) The only thing I didn't like, maybe was the fact that they kept on asking if I had ordered yet, or if there was anyone with me. (Which I get, since they're busy and I'm all alone at a table, but I had already explained that I was waiting for more people, which they seemed to forget.) On to the food: if you don't like anything spicy or flavorful, this place is not for you. Seriously. Their chicken is AMAZING. I love their spicy kangkong (doused with oil though), which pairs well with their fried rice. They've also got a large selection of cocktails and wine, apart from the normal beers. (I got lychee cocktail! Pretty yum.) Definitely coming back and making this a regular hang out! It's cleaner, newer, and is better ventilated than El Chupa.

We were immediately greeted by the owners, a Thai husband and wife, and they immediately made us feel welcomed with their inviting smiles and kindness. With our group of 5, we decided to all get different items to try out as much as we could from their menu. Our orders consisted of Thai Bagoong Rice, Roasted Pork Neck, Tom Yum Kung, Pad Thai, Spicy Pork Salad, Morning Glory and the Thai Egg Custard in Pumpkin for dessert. My personal order from the group was the Spicy Pork Salad. When I put in my order, the Thai Manang eyes lit up and asked me if I wanted it spicy, or in her words "Thai Spicy". I laughed, with a bit of fear, and said "Filipino level spicy, please". Something I later thanked myself for. Every single dish we ordered had such a "wow" factor to it, from the plating, to the spice and the overall flavor. With regards to spice levels, there was nothing overbearing but just enough to playfully singe your tastebuds forcing you to always eat another bite. If I had to highlight or recommend any dishes, I'd definitely suggest you try the Morning Glory salad, Tom Yum Kung, and the Thai Egg Custard in Pumpkin. This place is a hidden gem and sadly, it's almost undetectable along the plethora of restaurants located on Jupiter Street in Makati. If you've been to this area, you know exactly what I'm talking about. But trust me, if you're even a remote fan of Thai or spicy food, you owe it to yourself to give Siam Aroi a visit.

Not sure if we chose a spice level or not. It was good but got cold kinda fast. We didn't really have leftovers as the portion size was just enough for 7 of us. Service was good. Food came fast.

I was unfamiliar with the place so I decided to use the Yelp app. A few searches later, I went inside this Thai place. I had no idea what to expect. I had never even seen thai cuisine. The only thing I knew about thai cuisine was that they originated from Thailand. So I was quite puzzled when I tried choosing from their menu. There was a lot of foreign words. The pictures really helped. I decided to ask the waitress for their best sellers, specialties, and what they were made of. The girl answered all my questions and she was clear about everything. I tried choosing between their soup, rice toppings, and their most famous "Pad Thai". First of all, the Pad Thai was huge. It was a mound of flat noodles served on a large plate. It had a sour smell. There was a bit of crushed nots at the side, a lime wedge, some chicken, sprouted mongo, and the noodles. It was still hot. I used my chopsticks and slurped the noodles. It had a sour spicy taste. A new taste for me. The lime wedge helped to give it that sweet tangy taste. I liked their Pad Thai. For Php 205, it was really sulit. I mean two guys could split it. I'd like to come back to Songkran and try their other thai dishes. But I'd probably be back with friends so I have someone to split the Pad Thai with.

So far, even after a couple of visits, whatever I've order off their menu is satisfying. I was specially happy with their Shrimp Pad Thai. Note: If you are allergic, switch to chicken pad thai, it is also available for order! I always get their red beef curry whenever I visit. It's got enough of kick but not too spicy that its still makes eating it enjoyable. So yummy! And I don't know if we were just lucky, but one time, my friend requested for them to cooked beef basil which is not on the menu. Not only did they fulfilled our request, they also satisfied our taste buds. It's very generous of them to do that. Good thai food that's reasonably priced here at Songkran!
