Mr. Tuk Tuk

Despite being the last day of the year, it’s just business as usual in Setia City Mall. Located near the entrance of Urban Fresh, Mr. Tuk Tuk is one of the more affordable eateries in this upscale shopping mall. The name refers to auto rickshaw (ตุ๊กตุ๊ก), a 3-wheel vehicle that is very popular in crowded cities like Bangkok.

Mr. Tuk Tuk is managed by the same company as Koh Samui in Kota Kemuning. Unlike the latter, Mr. Tuk Tuk focuses on Thai-style street food in a casual and affordable setting. The menu consists of several set meals and à la dishes.

Set Menu 2 (RM16.80) consists of 4 items served on a coral-shaped plate. Fried rice is cooked with shrimps, cashew nuts bonito flakes and eggs. The rice is reasonably delectable especially when still hot.

Pandan chicken is not cooked so evenly such that one piece is quite oily while another piece is too dry.

I enjoy the deep-fried fish fillet with Thai sweet & spicy sauce. The sauce packs a respectable punch of spiciness, which I find most welcoming.

At the center of the plate is Thai mango salad (ตำมะม่วง). Unripe mango is used as its tangy taste and crunchy sensation are preferred.

Tom Yam Seafood (ต้มยำทะเล, RM10.80) is way too spicy for me. Yet, I find the soup to be appetizing nevertheless.

The soup contains various seafood ingredients which include fish, shrimp, squid and mussel.

The set meal comes with a drink, Thai Ice Green Tea (ชาเขียวเย็น). I am starting to appreciate the lovely aroma and aftertaste of Thai milk teas.
