Ahan Thai, Bandar Puteri Puchong, Puchong


My boys will start their primary 1 education tomorrow, 5th Jan 2008. Wifey decided to buy a nice dinner to celebrate this occasion. As usual, there are many outlets to choose from in the food haven of Bandar Puteri Puchong.
We decided to try out the Chinese-Thai fusion restaurant Ahan Thai. This establishment is located in the ever happening commercial hub of Bandar Puteri. As we're not sure whether the boys will have problems with fiery nature of Thai style cooking, so we let them make their own selection from the menu.

Ethan decided on the fresh river prawn yee mee (RM16.90). This is a good choice, the gravy is eggy, with the right thickness and infuse with the flavours of the prawns. He enjoyed the dish tremedously and able to wipe it clean.


As for Edric, he decided to go with Pattaya Fried Rice (RM6.90) because he simply loves fried omelette's. The rice was well fried with the right amount of seasoning. It also comes with generous portion, filled with pieces of minced chicken, shrimps and squid.
Now to taste the real food served by this restaurant, the adults opted for house Seafood Tom Yam soup (RM15.90), friend kangkong belacan (RM7.90), yellow curry siakap fish(RM15.90) and their signature dish, pineapple chicken (RM13.90).


The tomyam comes in a medium size claypot, with right level of potency of spiciness and sourish taste. It contained mussels, prawns and squids. The seafood was cooked just right as their texture was not too tough or rubbery.


As for the fish, the yellow curry was rich yet flavourful. The fish slices were fried before being cooked with the gravy. The gravy wasn't too spicy, good to go with white rice.


The vege dish tasted good, with enough belacan and maintained its level of crunchiness, as what the dish expected to be.

Lastly, the chicken dish. The presentation was quite unique. The sweet and sour sauce made up pieces of capsicums, onions, chillies and of course pineapples. It was contained in a pineapple ala pineapple fried rice style. The boneless chicken pieces was deep fried to the right level of crispiness and without being too oily. This to me is just like sweet and sour chicken but the sauce was serve separately, tasty but not extra-ordinary.

The servings here are in moderate portion and ambience is not bad either. No A/C though. The bill came up to RM89.70 for 4 adults and 2 kids (including tea and taxes). We'll certainly return to this place to taste more of its other offerings in the future.
