| Blue Elephant: This is the corner where we were sitting |
The menu is super long, has plenty of dishes and quite a few comes with 3 chilli symbol, meaning it is going to be real spicy.
Starter:
We started off with Thai fish cake, Golden bags and Chicken Satay.
 |
| Blue Elephant: Left is Thai Fish cake, Right is Chicken Satay and Top is Golden bag |
Thai fish cake was really good. It tasted so similar to the ones we had in Singapore. Try it with and without the dipping sauce. I preferred to have it with dipping sauce, as it added a refreshing taste to it. This dish is a little spicy.
Chicken Satay was alright, nothing fantastic to my preference. I prefer the Singapore style satay instead. The gravy that was on top of it was a bit too much to my liking. You could go with peanut sauce for dipping. This dish is not spicy at all. For Singapore style, satay is usually dry without gravy on it, and goes with a spicy peanut chilli mix dipping sauce.
Golden bags was great. The filling was really generous, and it really made the difference. Every bite was fulfilling. If I remember correctly, the filling was minced chicken. Do double check on the menu though. It goes really well with the sweet and sour dipping sauce.

| Blue Elephant: Tom Yum Khoong |
Next we had the killer, Tom Yum Khoong. This dish was real spicy. Remember that we are Asian, and we do find it spicy. I saw many tables around me who ordered the dish, had problem finishing the dish or you could hear them making some noise with their tongue as it was too spicy for them! However, try asking them to make it less spicy if you really can't take it. This is a must order dish when it comes to Thai food.
Main Course:
 |
| Blue Elephant: Fish |
Elson had the fish, which I think it was sea bass. He mentioned that it was overcooked, and wasn't quite liking the taste of it though. We would give it a miss the next time.
 |
| Blue Elephant: Fried Rice |
Fried Rice is like a comfort food for us. It is so common in Singapore, that almost every place you go to, will be able to produce decent fried rice. This fried rice we had at Blue Elephant was pretty good. The taste was very Asian, just like what we had in Singapore. Total comfort food for us! This is non spicy as well.
 |
| Blue Elephant: Green Chicken Curry |
Green Curry is a very typical Thai dish. This dish is not too spicy, just a little. However, I found it too strong in taste for me. There was an overdose of coconut milk in there and made it too thick. I would probably try the red curry next time instead.
 |
| Blue Elephant: Fried Vermicelli |
Blue Elephant has a vegetarian menu as well. The dishes are mainly the same, but they made it vegetarian. This fried vermicelli is from the vegetarian menu. I was a little disappointed with the dish when it arrived. When I read the description on the menu, I was expecting Fried Tofu with some Vermicelli and vegetables. But it turned out otherwise. Apparently, vermicelli is the main ingredient and not tofu. In fact, tofu was cut into such small pieces that I nearly missed it. However, this dish still taste quite good to me, a meat eater. This is a non-spicy dish.
Dessert:

| Blue Elephant: Coconut custard with Mango ice-cream |
They have quite a list of interesting desserts. We decided to go for the coconut custard with mango ice-cream. It was AMAZING! The coconut custard was so smooth and not too strong in taste. Mango ice-cream was brilliant with real mangoes inside. Highly recommended!
Overall, our experience at Blue Elephant was wonderful. Service was great there. They were very attentive and even willing to alter their spiciness level to suit. I would definitely go back again.
