My friend just randomly ring me up out of the blue saying that he had a good Authentic Thai Chicken Rice from Thailand in Scotts Garden, KL, want me to go check it out too. I got curious and went on the weekend itself. Do take note they close on Sunday.
It was not hard to find as they are just located few doors away from Coco Steamboat at the back of Scotts garden.
When I saw the stall, I love the vibe of it and realize that they are part of groceries shop. Got curious and asked they are actually same owner from Thai and only recently venture into Thai Chicken Rice.

They guy certainly put alot effort in platting the Chicken rice. He tried to put all the chicken ontop of the rice to make it look nice.
You look at the Chicken Rice Special @ RM 11.90 comes with gizzard, blood and chicken. Chicken rice smell is certainly drooling as the fragrance of it is so good. You can get some bite of slices ginger. My favourite spare part is the chicken blood. It is so good.
order their Thai coffee, Thai Ice tea and ofcourse I need my Thai Fanta too.
Chicken Rice Combo @ RM 13.90. NO doubt that the rice is legit. Its smiliar to the kind that I had in one of a famous shop in Bangkok and the rice texture is abit like sticky rice but its not is certainly the texture to look for. Fragrant and do have hint of ginger. Their special homemade sauce pairs very well with the chicken.
Crispy Fried Chicken rice is one of their 2nd best seller. If it is served hot, I believe it will be a great plate of Chicken rice.
After finishing my meal, I go next door to check them out, surprisingly I am blown away with the Thai mini market store. All the products in there are from Thai. When walked in here do feels that I am in Thailand as all the conversation in there is in Thai.
Then I aim on their crepe. and order 2 flavour. The famous Thai Crepe like I had it in Jodd Fair last year in Bangkok.
I ask the Thai guy, what is good and he reply me in Malay that Savoury is their bestseller and of course never say no. When I see how they make it, its with Sambal, crab meat. It turns out to be better than expected. The crepe best advise to eat it while its hot to enjoy some crispiness and the texture is slightly different as its abit soft end like our Pancake. If you are adventurous, its worth to give it a try.
sweet. – order this cuz they have one of the ingredients that I am looking at which Thai sweet desserts usually have it. I ask them they also do not know how to convert the wording for me in English , BM or Mandarin.
this thai crepe is Foi Thong is the ingredient that I aim for last round in Jodd Fair, Bangkok and now they have it here. Certainly do order. RM 8 and it is actually quite big.
for savory I order their Spicy which turns out to be good too. Can check em out. RM 8 too, taste quite like Bangkok.You can actually filled your Thai groceries here as they have all the famous brands like Thai Lays, tomyum maggie mee, facial products, thai cutleries and others. I am guessing that easily more than 500 items.
They do have fresh ingredients too. I ask the lady she reply me in Mandarin, saying that their fresh ingredients come in every Monday and Thursday. Thats where alot Thai people come in to grab their ingredients.
the ladies share to me that their fresh produce comes in from Hatyai every Monday and Thursday. you can easily grab your Thai snacks, sauces, noodle and many other stuff in this groceries store. I think is by far the largest Thai mini mart that I have come across in KL.
