My Elephant @ Happy Mansion, Section 17

It has been quite some time since I last came to visit My Elephant. I have written about the place before here and I think I should update it with this entry :) Nice Thai food nestled in between apartments in Section 17.

Clear Tom Som with Fish (RM 18) was very good. There were many fish slices and the soup is nice and spicy. Definitely not for the faint hearted :p

Pomelo Salad Yum Sor Orr (RM 15) is a tangy, spicy and salty salad that really opens up the palate. Tasty. There were generous pieces of pamelo in this with onions, nuts and herbs.

Ordered Snow Fish (RM 45) which was cooked in an interesting way. The fish is coated with a very thick layer of salt and then it is baked in foil. Herbs like lemon grass, lots of garlic pips, chinese parsley and a few more others is stuffed into the cavity of the fish. The skin is removed (not edible) and only the meat underneath it is edible. There's a mild sauce to go with it but the fish is already moist enough.

Wanted to order the young fern shoots that we have tried in our previous visit but none were available. Instead, had the Stir Fried Egg Plant. Was quite ok actually but would definitely prefer the young fern shoots fried in belachan (shrimp paste).

The pandan cooler (RM 3) drink is really refreshing and unlike drinks that we normally order, the sweetness of it is just nice.

Servings of rice (RM3) is refillable. Moreover, they use red rice and if I am not mistaken, is healthier and contains more fiber. There is a service charge of 10%.
