Malacca Straits Thai, Pitt Street food court

An article by obesebaby

This is a fast and busy food court which I often come in here just for the larp kai ( basil chilli mince chicken). Not a lot of places can do a good Larp Kai and the one in Malacca Straits Thai is certainly one of the best. My first favourite is still Chat Thai thou but with the restricted lunch hours and in days which I don’t have mood to line up for 1/2 an hour. I will just order a quick and yummy lunch here.

The entrance to the Woolworth food court is not easy to find, you can either enter via Pitt Street or go through the Metro Woolworth from George Street and this will lead you to a door which you pass through you will see the staircase to the food court. But be warn, this place is really packed and noisy, suggested to be there early so you can find a seat, however portion are generous and reasonable priced.

Basil chili chicken with egg and rice, $8.90

The larp kai is huge, full of flavours and fresh stir fry when order and not those take away sitting on a container waiting to be spoon. As you can see there is heaps of veges and the chicken mince are so tender and moist, I believe it is chicken thigh mince. Egg is extra $1.

Garlic and pepper chicken with rice, $7.50

The garlic and pepper chicken was tasty but not as nice without the chilli, after you tried something new you are always more determine to stick with your old favourite.

Conclusion: If you like authentic thai food and not fussy about the noisiness level and the food court ambience. Do come and have a try!
