Thai Chy in Indiranagar, Bangalore has one of the most reasonable South Asian buffets in town and is a good place to start trying this kind of food and developing your palette for it.
Their lotus stem and water chestnuts are so well done; it will give you a foodgasm. Their seafood tom yum is a burst of flavors and is a right balance of tanginess and spice will make your taste buds feel the burn and soothe it after an instant as well. Isn’t that amazing?
Their valcono prawns also get a thumbs up because the taste is on point. You cannot leave Thai Chy, without trying their Thai calamari because it is a god damn taste bomb.
Their volcano fried rice does not taste as good as expected. Their Singapore style curry laksa is a show stopper and will make you praise it incessantly.
The only bad thing about Thai Chy is the service. It is really slow and the staff is not very accommodating, but since the food is so good, one can give this a miss; although they should definitely work on this part of their dining experience.
Their chilly chicken bao will make you want to tell them to take a “bow” because it is spectacular as the dough is not too thick or doughy. The filling is also lip-smacking, making it a dish that deserves five on five rating.
