Baan Ice Southern Cuisine

For more than 20 years, ‘Baan Ice’ has been one of the most famous Southern Thai food restaurant in Bangkok. Main branch locates at a little bit outskirt side of Bangkok in Jatujak ward. I couldn't be happier when I heard that their second brunch has newly opened at Thonglor, replacing The Orient Thai Restaurant inside Somerset Thonglor.


I found the menu was filled with Southern Thai food and homey treats made by their original recipes. Southern Thai Food is famous for its spiciness. We decided to ordered non spicy food to sooth out taste bud also.


First dish landed on our table, Lieng leaves stir fried with eggs. This is one of traditional food from southern. Taste mild and easy to eat.


This is one of their original dish. Salted Crispy Chicken. Chicken were deep fried to the light crispiness. Coated with salted and sweet sauce. This sure bring out our appetite.


Another homey treat from their kitchen, Pork with Shrimp paste. Shredded pork was seasoned with Shrimp paste and cane sugar before being stir-fried thoroughly to the tenderness.


Crispy Pork Belly with Chilies and Ginger sauce. Pork belly was boiled then deep fried to crispiness. These Crispy Pork Belly absorb the chilies and ginger sauce very well.


Here comes another traditional southern food, Fish inner organs curry. This was thick and concentrated. Rather like a stew than a curry. Very full flavor and goes well with rice.


Assorted vegetable in coconut soup. This was mild and rather sweet. Vegetables were soft and absorb the taste of coconut soup thoroughly.


This is one of their signature southern dish, Kua Kling Australian Beef. Kua Kling is a kind dried curry made from minced pork stir fried with spice. Baan Ice made the premium version of this food using AUS beef. The outcome was lip smacking. Literally the star of our meal.


The last savory of our meal, Stir fried Pakria with vermicelli. The overall taste was mild, with a hint of preserved garlic as after taste.
This is their signature dessert. It’s Shaved Ice cream. I just love this unique texture, a combination of shaved ice and ice cream. A refreshing dessert to clear our taste bud after the meal. 

 It was a nice dining experience at Baan Ice. Atmosphere was good. Service was attentive. As it locates inside Somerset Thonglor, Car parking couldn't be more convenience.
