Pim's Thai Seafood Restaurant Bukit Tinggi Klang

Pim's Thai Seafood Restaurant Bukit Tinggi Address

There aren't that many Thai restaurants in Klang area, Pim's Thai Seafood Restaurant located at 23 Lorong Batu Nilam 21B, Bukit Tinggi 2, 41200 Klang recently opened for business to served authentic tasting Thai dishes in Klang.

Pim's Thai Seafood Restaurant Bukit Tinggi Interior

Unlike most other Thai restaurants; upon entering Pim's Thai Seafood Restaurant; you might have mistaken that you are entering a cafe instead. This is because the owner would like to set a new trend for its customer to enjoy these dishes in a modern and comfortable setting.

Pim's Thai Seafood Restaurant Bukit Tinggi  Thai Food

So, how authentic these Thai dishes will turn out to be; we were told that all the Chef is from Thailand and most of the ingredients and condiments used to cook these dishes are specially sourced from Thailand too.

Pim's Thai Seafood Restaurant Bukit Tinggi Fried Donuts Prawns

To start off our review, we had a few Thai appetiser which the first is theTod Man Gong Signature Fried Donut Prawns (RM18.90). We understand that the prawn is cut into little pieces and mix with the fish paste and then coated with a special batter before it is sent for deep frying. The result, you get a crisp skin while the paste has a firm texture which we like. Best eaten with the Thai Chillies sauce.

Pim's Thai Seafood Restaurant Bukit Tinggi Thai Prawns Pancake

Next is the Gong Ga Bang Thai Prawns Pancake (RM18.90). The filling of the prawn fish paste is spread onto the pancake roll and sent for deep frying. Like this too.

Pim's Thai Seafood Restaurant Bukit Tinggi Thai Roasted Pork

The last starter that we had is the Thai Roasted Pork (RM21.90). It is quite different from the Chinese Roast Pork (Siew York) in that the whole piece of pork are deep fried to a crisp much like a fried chicken.

Pim's Thai Seafood Restaurant Bukit Tinggi Seafood Tom Yum Pot
Seafood Tom Yum Pot 3-5 pax RM158.00
The main highlight of the Pim's Thai Seafood Restaurant Bukit Tinggi has to be the Pim's Super Seafood Tom Yum Pot (3-5 pax) RM158.00 consists of Crayfish, Tiger Prawns, Prawns, Hokkaido Squid, Duck Eggs, Mushrooms, Fishballs, Scallops, Thai Instant Noodles topped ith a fresh egg and Pim's Tom Yum Kung. We love the flavourful broth and it marries well with the abundance of seafood that is used to cooked this Tom Yam.



One of the interesting thing about this dish is that there are instant noodles which are added to the broth. Apparently, this cooking method is quite popular in Thailand too. It was a first encounter for us to eat this style. Nevertheless for instant noodles fans; you will surely love it. Also for the soup, you can get Free Refill to your heart's content. We were told that the soup is not pre-made in a bulk but on-demand basis; so that you can really get to taste it as freshly made as possible.

Pim's Thai Seafood Restaurant Bukit Tinggi Stir Fried Sotong In Salted Eggs

The next mains that we had the Pa Meng Pad Kai Kem Stir Fried Sotong In Salted Eggs (RM22.50). Like the fresh bouncy white squid. The salted eggs sauce that is used to cooked has a tinge of sweet taste. 

Pim's Thai Seafood Restaurant Bukit Tinggi Deep Fried Cray Fish

While the last mains is the Kang Tod Ka Tiam Deep Fried Crayfish With Garlic (RM39.00). This dish is a little bland for us, but will be great eaten with a glass of cold beer as an add-on.

Pim's Thai Seafood Restaurant Bukit Tinggi Pad Thai Noodles

If you still have stomach room after all those seafood, you can try out the Pad Thai Noodles (RM18.90) too.

Pim's Thai Seafood Restaurant Bukit Tinggi Jelly In Coconut

For desserts, we had Jelly in Coconut (RM7.90). It is a nice and cooling end to our review, We love the natural coconut taste of the jelly.

Pim's Thai Seafood Restaurant Bukit Tinggi Spring Rolls

Now, you have another option of some real Thai food at Pim's Thai Seafood Restaurant Bukit Tinggi Klang.

Kai’s Plato Kota Kemuning Seafood Restaurant - Special Steam Seafood Cuisine

Kai's Plato Kota Kemuning Seafood Restaurant Address

Seafood is one of my all time favourite food that I can't live without although seafood especially crabs and prawns will contribute to my already mid to high cholesterol level. So it is no surprise that I venture to the new opening of Kai's Plato Kota Kemuning outlet located at No. 31G & 33G, Jalan Anggerik Aranda BG 31/BG, Kota Kemuning. 40460 Shah Alam Selangor.

Kai's Plato Seafood Restaurant Decor 2

Riding on the success of its flagship outlet, Kai's Plato Kota Damansara, they have decided to open a new outlet in Kota Kemuning to served their signature dishes to customers of this affluent and growing township.

Kai's Plato Seafood Restaurant Wine Selection

Unlike your usual seafood restaurant, Kai’s Plato has a “hands and table” concept. No cutlery will be provided and customers will be enjoying their food with both hands. The idea of such interesting concept is to encourage communication and interaction between family and friends. Furthermore, they believe that seafood always tastes nicer when it is eaten using hands!

Kai's Plato Seafood Restaurant Decor1

“Kai” meant ocean in Welsh, which coincidently is the middle name of their chef; while “Plato” is a philosopher but also meant plate by plate at the same time. In short, “Kai’s Plato” means Ocean’s Philosopher. Looking around the restaurant, you’ll see lots of beautiful scallop shells on the walls that are either painted or written with messages by their customers.

Kai's Plato Seafood Restaurant Menu

Kai’s Plato has a simple menu that consists of simple starters and their signature seafood platter. Depending on the size of your group, Kai’s Plato offers 3 different platters for you to choose from. The platter would be served in a pot with 3-4 tiers with different seafood to be found at each tier.

Kai's Plato Seafood Restaurant Crispy Calamari

Deep fried calamari in their signature batter, the Crispy Calamari is a good appetizer or side order to have.

Kai's Plato Seafood Restaurant Sandy Crab

Sandy Crabby is a Fried baby crablets that are coated with salted egg yolks. You will love the crunchy and the savoury taste which is a perfectly paired with a nice glass of wine or cold beer.

Kai's Plato Seafood Restaurant Chillies Mussel

Kai's Plato Seafood Restaurant Steam Seafood Multi tier

The seafood Jumbo Platter (6 people) came with a five layer of a steam pot with a total of 11 combinations of seafood. The first three layers have different types of seafood and the bottom layer is the aromatic seafood soup. At Kai’s Plato, they practices “hand and table” dining, so no cutlery would be provided. All you have to do is, use the tongs to pick up the seafood, place it on the table and start digging in with your hands. A bucket will be provided for you to dispose of the seafood shells.

Kai's Plato Seafood Restaurant Steam Seafood Tier 1

The first layer consists of Fish , Abalone, Oyster , and cabbages. These were intentionally served as the top layer as its' meat texture is more tender, requires less steaming and easier to eat.

Kai's Plato Seafood Restaurant Steam Seafood Tier 2

A little bit peeling and de-shelling would be required for the second layer, which consists of Big Clam , Shrimps , Squid, and Bamboo Clam served on a platter of cabbages at the bottom, which is used to encapsulate all the juices from the seafood.

Kai's Plato Seafood Restaurant Steam Seafood Tier 3

The third layer is the Third Layer : Mussel , Fresh Water Big Head Prawn, and Scallop. Loves the Roe of the big prawns.

Kai's Plato Seafood Restaurant Steam Seafood Tier 4

The fourth layer is an impressive layout of succulent steamed mud crab, Shell Fish and Slipper Lobster with Sou hoon. Both the crab and slipper lobster have very firm flesh and you could taste the natural sweetness of the seafood.

Kai's Plato Seafood Restaurant Steam Seafood Tier 5

After all the feasting you can now sit back and enjoy a bowl of aromatic seafood soup that is packed with umami flavours with Angel Hair pasta or Enoki mushroom to savour this seafood enriched broth.

Kai's Plato Seafood Restaurant Pineapple Sauce

Come September 2016 Kai's Plato is planning to launch its version of Louisiana seafood boils with four of their signature sauce. Each serving of the seafood is cooked with potatoes , carrots , corns and refillable rice. The first of it is the Pineapple Sauce - our most popular choice.

Kai's Plato Seafood Restaurant Garlic Butter Sauce

Garlic Butter sauce - needed some improvement on this sauce.

Kai's Plato Seafood Restaurant Cajun Sauce

Kai's Plato Seafood Restaurant Sambal Cili Sauce

Sambal Cili Sauce - a little too spicy for us.
