Miang Kham MiniSiam - RM19.90

People who appreciate Thai Food will really enjoy a plate of good Miang Kham whether it comes to dining at Thai Restaurants. It is very simple way of eating this, just grab a piece of Betel Leaf and wrap all the ingredients givens then take a bite and enjoy it.

This is a traditional Thai dish that is favourite of many, some restaurants may also serve different condiments depends on what they are serving.

Stir Fry Thai Style Cashew Chicken - RM24.90

If you are into ordering some dishes to go with rice, this non-spicy dish would be great for yourself of kids if you can't tolerate spicy dishes. They use chicken thigh for this dish which is quite juicy and tender, may be a little bit too salty if you are not serving it with any rice or noodle.

Stir Fry Holy Basil Minced Pork - RM19.90

What's Thai food without a dish with Holy Thai Basil? Among all the Holy Basil dishes, the holy basil minced pork is one of the most popular dishes and I'll always order this dish whenever I dine in a Thai restaurant. I find their version here in Mini Siam is really spicy so maybe you can ask for less spicy version if your toleration towards spiciness is as weak as mine.

White Tomyum Seafood Soup - RM34.90

If you been to Thailand before, you will know that most of the Tomyum soup in Thailand are mostly clear Tomyum soup instead of the red version. This is what Thai people mostly enjoy in Thailand, however, the taste of the soup is still very flavour even though they look plain.

Stir Fry Gai Lan with Pork Belly - RM22.90

Mini Siam Phad Thai Shrimp - RM18.90

If you are not into getting dishes with rice, you can also order their rice or noodle dishes that are available even for lunch or dinner. Their Phad Thai are freshly fried upon order and the amount of shrimp given is so generous, fresh and big. They also have fried rice and other noodles available on the menu.
