Nursyuhaidah Restaurant and Catering Services

As my friend and I haven't seen each other for a long time since I got a part-time job, I asked him out for lunch on Saturday yesterday, though I had to request it to be his treat because I'm still broke and have yet gotten my pay. So we went to somewhere in Serusop where he could afford the lunch.

This be the signboard of the restaurant. It's within Serusop area, and coincidentally opposite Easy Way where I had lunch with my hubby. LOL! Brunei really is a small world, innit? This restaurant sells Thai food, but you can tell from the name of the restaurant that it is run by a Malay

Le main entrance of the restaurant

This is the first thing you see when you enter the restaurant, as all Thai food restaurant usually has, though I see an overflow of lemons...

The drink fridge, which reminds me of spot checks and market surveys I have to do with my colleagues back when I was working with F&N back in KK



This is the interior of the restaurant in a nutshell. It doesn't really have the Thai feel to it, more like a typical Malay simple and clean restaurant, but it's no big, really. Customers were slightly booming in there, and among them were a few possibly college students, with a couple of Nigerian students within the group. I find the small corner at the end for extra guests to sit (pic of the tables behind my friend) kinda sad, since it's so lonely and isolated and so close to women's toilet, which is not exactly a good spot. LOL



Again, my friend ordered green curry with rice and Teh-C Ping. When his order arrived, I could literally smell the santan (coconut milk) emitting from the curry pot, showing that it definitely had an overdose of santan to make this curry. And it tastes really creamy and thick, almost like trying to drink Campbell's soup, with the curry spiciness in between. To be honest, the green curry in Jerudong tastes better. I find it cute though that they made the rice into a heart-shape. Shows that they've got effort


Of course, any respectable person who comes to a restaurant of a certain genre will order something familiar to see how they make their food. Thank goodness they've cut the prawn in half so that I don't have to peel it myself, but it's still a bit of a bitch to eat. The soup itself was not exactly spicy, and it's not sour either. In fact, it tasted sweet! This is something new. A sweet-tasting Tom Yam. Maybe they should try using some of those huge stack of lemons they have to make it sour, or be more generous with the lemon grass, but all in all, it's pretty interesting taste

I might not really recommend this restaurant if you're into really authentic Thai food, but if you're not too picky on authenticity, it might just be the place for you.
