For a barbecue dinner that doesn't involve you doing the work, head to BBQ Thai. The bustling outdoor environment sporting tuk tuks and other Thai features make this place a frontrunner for your next meetup with the gang! Head straight for their great made-to-order grills. The BBQ Pork Neck (RM28) is found on every table, and it definitely deserves a spot on yours too. Though priced on the steep side, the sliced pork neck spells perfection with its flavour-packed marinade and smoky, tender finish. The spicy green chili dip that comes with it is also hot stuff. The Tom Yum Seafood (RM25) doesn't overload on heat, so even if you're not a fan of the spicy soup, its gentle zing should still satisfy. Also good to munch on between mains are the Thai BBQ Cockles (RM12). For dessert, order the traditional Tako (RM12 for six pieces) that comes set in banana leaves. The one-bite sweet made of coconut milk, jelly and corn is a refreshing way to end the meal!
Avg price per person: RM40
