Another dish that we also ordered is the Phad Thai, a dish found in most Thai restaurants. For RM12.90, the thin Thai noodle was lightly charred with generous amount of bean sprouts, chopped chives, Chinese sausage slices, deep-fried bean curd cubes, prawns, spices and served with coarsely pounded roasted peanuts.
