Thai Restaurant Yakitori
Capturing The Essense Of Thai Cuisine
If you are on a budget and loves to taste Authentic Thai Cuisine, then this review will be of great interest to you. We were invited to try out the newly open Thai Syok Thai Food Restaurant located at 15, Jalan PJS 8/18, Dataran Mentari, Sunway Mentari, Bandar Sunway, Selangor.

The decor and setup at Thai Syok Thai Restaurant Yakitori is a no frill, simple setup; on entry to the restaurant you will be greeted and welcomed by 2 special Thai figurine.
Plethora Of Authentic Thai Cuisines
Exceptionally Fragrant Thai Rice
The chefs in Thai Syok are all Thai's, so our expectation is sky-high on the quality and taste of the food served from the restaurant.
Papaya Salad
RM 10.50
Our review started with the Papaya Salad. This salad has a spicy and sourish taste. With the combination of toasted peanuts, shredded raw papaya, it was a nice appetiser to kick off our food review.
Seafood Tom Yum Kung (Medium)
RM 24.30
This is then followed by the Seafood Tom Yum Kung (Medium). It is loaded with a combination of seafood like prawns, squids, mussel, mushroom and more. But, what is more, important was the potent concoction of this Tom Yum; which has a distinctive strong taste; of which you could easily get choked.
The chef uses a special in-house made Tom Yum paste with the right amount of bunga kantan and lemongrass. The soup was very addictive as we can't stop slurping it spoonful after spoonful.
Fried Tom Yum Fish
(Seasonal Pricing)
For the mains, we had another Chef speciality dish which is the Fried Tom Yum Fish. At Thai Syok, you can choose the type of fish that you like is Grouper, Tilapia or Barramundi; for us, it was the Red Tilapia (prices for the fish is based on the type of fish and weight).
Fried to a bright yellow crunchy crisp and then topped with the appetizing special Tom Yum sauce laden with a generous amount of cut ginger flower or bunga kantan; the entire dish was very aromatic and delightfully fragrant. This is another dish that goes pretty well with the white rice. We finish this dish right to the last drop of sauce.
Yakitori Combo
RM 24
At this Thai Syok outlet, the owner is introducing some special skewers or Thai yakitori to its menu. We had the Yakitori Combo (RM24.00) and only available for dinner. The main difference between the Thai and the Japanese Yakitori will be the Japanese usually does not marinate its meat before being grilled, while its Thai counterpart will be marinated in special sauces.
This makes the flavours of the marinade penetrate to the meat. In our combo set we had a skewer of pork neck, pork belly, pandan leaf chicken, basil minced meat with lemongrass, king prawns on tom yum paste and chicken wings.
Deep-Fried Pork Knuckle
RM 58.20
The next dish is the Deep Fried Pork Knuckle. According to the owner, the pork knuckle are first pre-cooked in a special broth, both to soften the texture and immerse it with the fragrant aroma of the broth.
Before serving, it is then fried to a crisp; so that you can really taste the crackling skin while enjoying the juicy sweet flavour of the meat. Another dish that gets our thumbs up.
BBQ Lamb Chop
After that we had the soon to be released BBQ Lamb Chop. The pre-marinated lamb chop are then grilled to the right charred while the meat still retains its juiciness and succulence.
Wok Fried Asparagus with Shrimps
RM 24.30
For vegetables, we had the Wok Fried Asparagus with Shrimps. We love the crunchy texture of the young asparagus and was a nice vegetable to accompany our other dishes.
Thai Mango With Sweet Glutinous Rice
For desserts, we can't leave without trying out my favourite Thai Mango With Sweet Glutinous Rice. This dessert must be eaten fairly quickly as the glutinous rice tends to dry up quite fast; thereby having a hard texture toward the end. It was nicely decorated with the mango surrounding the Glutinous rice and the coconut sauce.
Ice Blended Red Rubies With Jack Fruit and Coconut Syrup
And the second dessert was the Ice Blended Red Rubies With Jack Fruit and Coconut Syrup to complete our dinner. The difference with the ice blended compare with the crush ice version, is that it is much finer, blended well with the coconut syrup and smoother to drink. We like this too.
As most people will know that Dataran Sunway Mentari is famous for steamboat, but you will never expect such good quality and reasonably price Thai Food from this area and certainly Thai Syok Thai Restaurant Yakitori have proven their capability to dish out such a cuisine.
