Mae Salong Thai Restaurant ~ Sg.Petani's Little Hidden Treasure


My sister-in-law took me to this place sometime early last year. I was amazed that our small town had such a quaint well landscaped restaurant serving such delicious Thai cuisine.  This place totally slipped my mind until a few weeks back when someone from Kuala Lumpur mentioned that people recommended them Mae Salong, and I was like “Wow!! This place is so famous” & I just had to give it another try.

Known to be packed especially during the evening on weekends, we decided to have an early lunch so as to be able to view their lovely surroundings.  Stepping through the gates brings you into a totally different world.  Beautiful landscaped gardens with flowing water all around as you dine in their air-conditioned room or if you prefer dine in their natural environment by just taking a few steps upstairs.

Being the first patron of the day, food was served within half an hour. The down side is that no Menu was available so it’s advisable to browse through their website for their Menu beforehand so as to roughly know what you would like to order or you could ask them to recommend you their house speciality. You can even check out blogs on recommendations.

So while waiting for our food to be served we walked around the place a bit for photos.

Their beautiful landscaped gardens

My favourite was their ‘one-of-a kind’ wash basin.

Their unique interior design.

Then comes the FOOD!!

Ikan bilis & peanuts fried with curry leaves & dried chillies as starters(RM2.00)

The Main course

Steamed kepah with garlic, ginger, salted vegetable & chillies ~ good sour & hot combination (RM15.00)

Pucuk Paku with sambal belacan ~ requested it to be made not too hot which turned out to be nice as we can  really taste the delicasy of the dish (RM8.00)

My favourite ~ Mantis prawns fried with salted eggs (recommended) but it was a really small portion for RM20.00

Another of my favourite ~ their own made Fried Tofu (RM10.00)

Seafood Otak-Otak ~ spicy & flavourful (RM16.00)

Dont miss their Rojak (RM8.00)
 
We  opted for their jug Sugar Cane drink (Tek Chia) ~ RM12.00


Enjoying our scrumptious lunch =)
The only Menu ~ the dessert menu
One final shot before leaving =)

Definately will be back for more !!

Mae Salong is easily accessible from the Western Bypass, you cannot miss this place after turning into the junction towards SMK Tunku Ismail as there will signboards all the way leading you to the restaurant.
