Batai had become a well known buzz with first outlet that operated in the area, Yellow Brick Road, follow by an anchor tenant Big supermarket. Currently this place is pack with a few F&B and was recently visited Ekkamai that serve fusion Thai Food.

Upon entering the place, you wil be greeted with their luxury Thai settings and a nicely design bar for peeps around the area to enjoy a drink or two during happy hour.

Kai Lan @ RM 18

ekkamai (9)

Kangkung Balachan @ RM 18

ekkamai (10)

Duck & Lychee Curry @ RM 32. roast Duck curry with tomato, lychee & pineapple. This is another dish where we find it nice in flavour, where curry is slightly thick and goes well with rice as it gives you the slight hint of sweet lychee end.

ekkamai (11)

Their Classic Tomyum Seafood @ RM 22 is not as big bowl as what we thought it would be and flavour wise is not as spicy as what it looks like.

ekkamai (12)

First time trying out Tom Kha Chicken @ RM20. soup with young coconut meat, balance with light coconut milk. Tomyum in this version where it is very strong in sourish taste and slightly creamier.

ekkamai (13)

Spicy Calamari @ RM 18 – crispy calamari tossed with garlic and chili pepper.

ekkamai (14)

Pineapple fried rice @ RM 22 with chicken, prawns & Cashew nuts. – this dish is out. 

ekkamai (15)

Homok Seafood @ RM 26 – Thai Style otak otak with prawns, squid, mussels and scallops in spicy moose.

ekkamai (16)

Pamelo Salad Prawn @ RM 22 seems to be one of our favourite for the night, where slightly juicy pulp from pamelo with fresh prawns and sourish end of the taste certainly do dance well in our taste bud.

ekkamai (17)

Stuffed Squid @ RM 22 – Grilled squid stuffed wtih chicken & prawns marinated in garlic and coriander.

ekkamai (18)

Phad Thai Prawn @ RM 24. I have had better Phad Thai’s Before. 

ekkamai (19)

red Snapper @ RM 68 – steamded with lime juice, coriender and garlic.

ekkamai (20)

Red Rubby @ RM 12

ekkamai (21)

For drinks, this Kedondong Asam Boi @ RM 12 is a must order drink where all the ingredients are punch fresh to abstract the flavor to make it into their signature drink. It is refreshing, and there are alot of ingredients for you to chew. Sour enough and a great mix of flavor.

If you are looking for authentic Thai food to hunt for, I guess you can skip this outlet where we felt that the taste here is more skewed towards international taste bud. If you are here to host some international guest, then it would be an ideal place.

Operating about a year plus, it had start to gain popularity around the non muslim as this is one of a only very few outlets that serve Pork. With hot weather recently, its a great bonus to discover that they are serving set lunch now starting from RM12.90.

AS the night is young, we are serve with their signature Mojitos.

Moon (4)

We get to sample some of their signature for the night that starting off witha platter of Spicy Fried Chicken Wing, Black Pepper Lamb Parcels, Fried Breaded Mozzarella and a skewer of Roast Pork Belly and Chargrilled Honey Lime Chicken. 

Moon (5)

If you do hang out at the outlet for beers, then Roast Pork Belly and Chargrilled Honey Lime Chicken will pair very well with it as the marination of both dish is very well done and cook to perfection, along with the chicken is fried till crips and aromatic.

Next we were told to challage on this dish with its excessive spiciness level  is Butter Briyani Rice with Spicy Sri Lankan Tamarind Pork Belly and Mutton Varuval.  When this plate is serve, the aroma of the curry and spices filled up our nose instantly. First few bites of the briyani rice is bursting with spices and flavours are awesome! Then after that, I am burst with excessive spiciness that just hit hard on my tongue. Love the taste of the spiciness, but not really a fan of cloves as they cook pretty much in it. If they tone it down, then would have been a perfect dish.

Both Pork Belly and Mutton are cook to perfection with the curry are well marinate and coated on the meat. Taste of Mutton is more outstanding than the pork.

As the days pass, the demand of  Hokkien Mee for supper is pretty good. With consumption of beer into our belly, the version of Hokkien Mee is shower with alot of Chu Yau Cha (Pork Lard). If you find that the current serving is lack of  it, you can just order extra Pork lard at RM 4. For a Bar to cook Hokkien Mee, I must say its pretty impressive!

Moon (8)

Not only Hokkien Mee in Demand as their Bak Kut Teh is also another popular dish among many people who are looking for supper in the outlet.

Moon (9)

Broth been cooked for hours to get the best taste of it, and do note that the taste of the soup here is not strong in herbs as customer here prefer mild version.

Moon (10)

At the end of the meal, we were pamper with Cheng Yi (Fatboybakes) cakes. As always, his cakes never dissapoint us and always on top notch. If you do plan to order, can check out his website. fatboybakes.blogspot.com

If you are lazy to drive far and staying around the area, then Moon Bar might be one of your choice with add on bonus as on Friday nights. With veteran jazz pianist David Gomes and friends, known as the “David Gomes Trio”, will entertain all of you for the night.
