@kinnarithaicuisine has been established along Joo Chiat Road for a good long while, but it’s only recently that they’ve rolled out a couple of sick lunch specials. One of those lovely lunch offerings is this bowl of Khao Soi Chicken, which is eight dollars before additional service charge only at lunch.⠀
⠀
Khao Soi is a Thai coconut curry soup noodle, and is a rather familiar dish to Singaporeans. That’s right, it’s a Thai twist on curry chicken noodles. The luscious coconut milk enriched curry is chock full of lemongrass and fish sauce. which is the main difference between the Thai curry & the nyonya version. The aromatic Thai curry gravy houses egg noodles, which is essentially mee pok, chicken thigh chunks and raw shallots. The dish is generously garnished with an abundance of crispy deep fried mee pok at the top.⠀

There really isn’t much to say about Kinnari’s Khao Soi chicken, it’s a redolent, rich curry gravy that binds al dente noodles & chicken together. It’s simple, but it’s simply comfort food for a rainy day or when you need something hearty & spicy to breathe life into a dreary day.
