Baan Yin Dee Restaurant Review

muean ngern road Fusion & International Food

Few destinations in the world can host an evening of enjoyment with sophisticated flair and unrivalled ambience. Unprecedented luxury and comfort characterise Baan Yin Dee. “Warm Welcome Home”, the English translation of Baan Yin Dee, is an apt name for this upscale retreat that truly is to be discovered. Personalised service with traditional Thai charm and hospitality, the pleasing sounds of the piano and the superb dinner make for a relaxing occasion.

The menu reveals a tempting array of selections. The Tom Yam Goong, a sour and spicy prawn soup with lemongrass, mushrooms, galangal and herbs and the Som Tam Tod, a modified version of the Thai Papaya Salad with deep fried shredded vegetables and shrimp, are two Thai favourites providing a graceful ease into the superb meal. Complemented by the red wine El Supremo Syrah from Argentina, the courses to come, beckon.

The international and fusion flare at BYD come alive in the dishes so delicately prepared and presented. The Nasi Goreng Kampong, the Indonesian style fried rice served with chicken satay and shrimp crackers, topped with a fried egg is a refreshing dish particularly for those familiar with the Thai Khao Pat or fried rice with its different spices and sauce. BYD’s Salmon Steak, glazed with plum sauce and served with cauliflower mousse and wok-fried Bok Choy in soya sauce served with mint and Thai basil is a medley of tantalizing flavours served over a moist and perfectly cooked salmon. A signature dish not to be missed is the KO’s spicy sautéed pasta, a choice of pasta with asparagus, olives, Thai basil pesto sauce, peppers, dry chilli with seafood or chicken.

Sweet treats are a distinctive roundup to a wonderful meal and enhance the timeless quality of the evening. The Chocolate Fondant, a hot chocolate cake with a melting chocolate centre, is a decadent dessert and tasteful treat.

An upscale venue catering to tourists and locals alike, BYD provides an unsurpassed dining experience. With superb food, piano music and hospitality in a stylish environment, it doesn’t get any better than this.
