Soho Spice- Impressive mains in Thai stye that I can still recall after half a year

If you are looking for something other than the typical steak and ribs, then suggested is a trip up to soho street- Soho spice, an elegant and modern place that never ceased to amaze us with its passion making fine Thai and Vietnamese cuisine!

Starter

we started with Fried calamari $102), Calamari itself is soft and tender, with a crispy crunch on top, perfectly battered. Spice lime dipping sauce and black pepper with a hint of spiciness and heat.

Awakening our taste bud, the Classic grilled Thai beef salad ($88) was wonderful, with crunchy toppings making every bite refreshing. The beef accented by the sweet dressing, against the coolness of mints and lettuce, was enticing! 

The whole dinning experience simply kept on a high note, especially when the prawn rice paper roll with mango and cucumber ($92) gave us a perfectly awakening crunch, dipped in a house made mandarin dipping sauce in the right level of tropical freshness to our night. 

An impressive mains that I can recall even after half a year. With top marks going to the Vegetable dumplings with eggplant, chilly, coconut curry and coriander ($118). Dumpling was well executed, with perfectly marinated veggies inside. The whole smoked eggplant at the botton is charcoal grilled - providing a  mind-numbing kick to our tastebud, while allowing for its pure taste to glimmer even brighter than the main of the dish. Yum!

Lamb rack marinated in red curry paste with green coconut curry ($172) was fresh and tender, with its pleasantly unique flavour standing out from this rich and flavourful curry, which is not exactly the real spicy deal of sauce. If you are not hardcore fans of hot and spicy food, you might love it! A good match with its house wine- Weichbridce Shiraz 2012.

Dessert

Instead of the very common mango with purple sticky rice and coconut milk ($62), Soho Spice offered something more soothing. Baked Pumpkin pudding with hot cinnamon lychee sauce  ($52) that provided a sweet and soothing end to our meal.

Service

Attentive service with friendly staff recommending great food to us, according to our favourites and group size. 

Environment: Dim lighting and comfortable seating that makes the night chill and relaxed but you might take the pressure to skim through the overwhelming menu. Big plus to us: dish are tend to be on the large side; it’s a perfect place to share food!
