Food and friends! I'm sure many of you would agree that nothing is better than food and friends! The older I get I realize how precious time is and as it turns out, when ever the opportunity does come to meet up/catch up with friends it's usually done over a meal or some coffee. Some months ago in the summer before schools and university normally begins my boyfriend and I met up with an old favorite teacher of ours and a friend from school who was visiting Singapore!
We meet up and went to have a delicious thai meal at a place that I'd heard so much about but never visited yet! Nakhon Kitchen is known for affordable and super authentic thai food and it did not disappoint! It was so great just to be able to chat non-stop about the going ons, asking each other how we've been doing and what's been going on as it's been years since we all were in the same space!
Continue below for the lovely meals!

This post is just drool worthy! Choosing between Thai and Chinese food is super hard. Both have such a variety of flavours and dishes that they are both equal in my heart haha
ReplyDeleteHi Sharlynn,
ReplyDeleteGood food are the best with best companions :D What a nice place to dine... I don't mind both Chinese and Thai food. Both places look great but sad that the xiao long bao are kind of "leaky" :p
