K.N.Y. Kitchen

Now that I have settled in a new working environment, it is only natural that I sample the neighbourhood cuisines. So when my friends asked me out for lunch, I jumped to the chance to join them. So first stop: K.N.Y. Kitchen.

This be the signboard of the restaurant. It is just a 30 seconds walk from my office since it is actually directly across. It's situated in the Kiarong area which is across the highway road of the Jame Assr Mosque

This be the entrance of the restaurant

This be the interior of the restaurant. It's got a nice, quiet feel. Very simple and clean. Nothing fancy. Feels almost like a regular restaurant that serves a jack-of-all-trades cuisine if it weren't the fact that the signboard says it serves Thai cuisine. A few soccer memorablia hangs around the wall, signed, sealed and delivered. Makes me wonder if the autographs were authentic.

This be our drink: Iced lemon tea, warm milo and iced milk tea (I think). Just felt like getting something warm to drink since we're in an air-conditioned room

This is what I ordered: Tom Yam Meehoon with Seafood. Everytime there is some new Thai restaurant I go to, I would always sample their trademark food just to see how good it is. Unfortunately, it was not as spicy as I had expected, but just a bit sourish in between. The third time I came here to eat, I actually had to request them to give me extra spicy to even get to the spiciness I wanted

My friend ordered sweet and sour kuay tiow, and it looks brightly coloured, especially the red and green pepper and the eggs and spring onion. I tried it and it tastes pretty good, although my friend is not exactly a veggie fan.

My good ol' pal who had been my hiking and eating buddy ordered his usual trademark food whenever he samples a new Thai restaurant: Green curry with rice. Sadly it wasn't served as all Thai restaurant do, with a separate claypot. It was just splashed a dash onto the plate of rice and the portion was quite little

Those who work in Kiarong area and fancy a Thai cuisine, this would be a good place to go to, though don't have your hopes too high on it being a high-quality authentic Thai cuisine. Just adequate.
