The Smelly Authentic FooJang

8:20 PM

Thai cuisine places emphasis on lightly prepared dishes with strong aromatic components. Thai cuisine is known for being spicy. Balance, detail and variety are important to Thai cooking. Thai food is known for its balance of the five fundamental taste senses in each dish or the overall meal: hot (spicy), sour, sweet, salty, and (optional) bitter.

If you're looking for an authentic taste, we've found Som's in the residential area of Poblacion, Makati near Rockwell. I was really suprised to see monobloc chairs and tables on the streets when they do have a air-conditioned and spacious place to eat at the other side of the street. Only for me to know the humble beginnings of the well established restaurant. It was more of an eatery before and customers really eat their food  on the streets with the monobloc chairs and tables. It seem's having those chairs and tables out on the street is Som's tradition.

Air-conditioned and spacious 


 I preferred dining outside even if they have an air-conditioned room (limited seats only) beside the counter area, but where's the fun in that right? The air-conditioned room is not a plus for me especially when it's a bit windy outside and Mr. Sun is sleeping like a baby.

Here's their menu! 












Pork Green Curry tends to be one of the milder curries of Thai cuisine. The name literally means 'sweet green curry' but if you prefer a spicy curry, simply increase the amount of fresh green Thai chili peppers in the Green Curry paste recipe.

A spring roll is made of a thin outer wrapping that is filled with a pork and some spices. The wrapped spring roll is then deep fried to a golden brown color.

Spicy foods are okay with me but not spicy as thai food. I don't like how thai food smells but anyway it's worth the experience. But according to my friends who are Thai food lovers, the taste is really authentic. It's a must for people looking for Thai cuisine in the metro that's still affordable.
