ThaiExpress as its name suggests, is about
Thai food served in double quick time, without compromising
on the authenticity and taste that has made it a much loved
cuisine the world over. It is about catering to today's
fast paced lifestyle where meals are squeezed in between
a meeting or deadline.
ThaiExpress also breaks away from the traditional Thai
style of communal dining by serving items in individual
portions for those who may want to dine alone. In place
of fine dining, which may be intimidating to some, ThaiExpress
is all about being fresh, contemporary and fuss-free. The
ambience is casual and cosy with prices that encourage repeat
visits, even on the same day.
It prides itself in having a menu in which more than half
of the items listed are special ThaiExpress creations that
are not found anywhere else. These include its Japanese-inspired
Popiah Wrap for those who crave a light snack; the Tofu-Mushroom
Salad, which is a hit with the ladies; the simple yet delicious
Tofu Squares; the ever-popular Thai fried squid; the tasty
Thai Mee Sua; and its very own unique Curried Soft Shell
Crab.
ThaiExpress is also one of the few Thai restaurants to
offer a selection of Thai Laksa. Diners can choose from
a selection of eight different Thai Laksa, including its
very popular Nam Phrik Laksa and Green Seafood Laksa, a
la ThaiExpress style. The Nam Phrik Laksa uses fine rice
vermicelli, which is then bathed in mouth-watering gravy
that gets its full-bodied flavour from a combination of
spices, chopped nuts and dried shrimps. The Green Seafood
Laska uses thick rice vermicelli and is served smothered
in a green rich and spicy coconut gravy.
Besides its innovative one-of-a-kind items, ThaiExpress
offers many of the dishes that have become almost standard
offerings in most Thai restaurants, such as Tom Yam, Mango
Salad, Pineapple Rice, Phat Thai and curries.
Its dessert menu offers popular Thai desserts like fresh
Mango with Glutinous Rice, Thai Red Rubies, Steamed Tapioca,
along with its own house specials like the ThaiExpress Red
Bean Dessert with homemade red bean paste and Thai Banana
Fritters with coconut ice-cream.
Even its beverage menu carries on its theme of being innovative
and fresh. These include Red Bean Milkshake, Avocado Milkshake
and Chiang Mai Mango Blend.
ThaiExpress is owned by Onyx Concept Restaurant Pte Ltd.

be a hit. Behind the many delectable creations at ThaiExpress
