1st day back from CNY holidays, i was invited by friends to go for a 'book hunt' because a book store is closing down and now having a clearance sale. To me, that is great, because i thought about to get some books for my next few cooking project. Of course we have lunch prior to the shopping trip and we had picked Black Canyon restaurant. I heard about this restaurant before which specialized in Thai food, i bet this must be one of the good restaurant started in Thailand. Anyhow, look at my cup of coffee. This is my 4th coffee of the first day of work after long holiday, yet i don't feel guilty at all! Canyon cappucino with heart shaped creamer on the top. KKW ordered Arabica coffee, which is like a shot of expresso. Interesting is the both coffee comes with a light tea, and this is the only time that i believe the validity of phrase "coffee AND tea?" and not "coffee OR tea?".
After juggling through the menu, i kind of hard to decide to get something soupy like Tom Yum or to get something different like stir fried fusili with Chili paste, i've made the later choice. However my friends are all spicy lover and thus chose Tom Yum.
I will have to admit that Tom Yum is still taste better with seafood than in chicken. We got 1 for each for comparison and all agreed that prawn one is tastier than the other. The prawns are big too, not about hawker type small shrimp, but big and juicy one. BTW, watch out your cholestrol as well, and don't suck too much on the prawn head! haha! For myself i have ordered a different type of food - stir fried fusili with chili paste and basil leaves. Basil leave is a great ingredient for soups and adding the natural savory to your cooking.
The dish is using Italian ingredient but Asian way of cooking. The appearance looks Italian - you know, pasta with some sort of vinegar dressing. However, when you have a bite on it, it is totally oriental - spicy with chili paste, stir fried till golden brown. Overall i think the restaurant's food is quite good and delicious, recommended to give it another try. So far i only know 2 places: one is in Summit and the other in center point. On my next trip when i craved for Tom Yum, i will definitely get this for perfect satisfaction!
