Not to be mistaken with the infamous place in Japan

I was browsing through various website the other day and I had come across this pretty interesting restaurant. And the most important point about this restaurant would be this amazing dish that is so so filling.... O.o...

'Thai Ice Tea' Being a heavy tea lover, I will always start off a good meal at a Thai restaurant with a good glass of 'Thai Ice Tea'. With a good amount of sweetness, topped with the nice aroma and taste of the tea leaves, makes this a pretty good drink to start your day.

Enough of the drink, it's time to move on to our 'Main', which compromise of a plate of 'Jasmine Rice' and...

'Stir-fried Soft Shell Crab with Yellow Curry' (Phunim Phad Pong Karee) The sinful thick curry would be a big (+). You can easily wipe out a bowl of white rice just by covering it with a sinful portion of curry gravy. Not only the gravy tastes good, the Soft Shell Crab that comes with it are pretty interesting too. Though you can easily count the number of Soft Shell Crabs that were given using your 10 fingers but that isn't the most important point. The most important point about this dish would be the fact that they are pretty crunchy, juicy and the taste of the curry has blend in nicely.

'I-Thim Nara' This comes with a scoop of Coconut Ice Cream and 8 other cups of interesting toppings. There's the crunchy 'Peanuts', 'Sweet Corns', sweet 'Nata De Coco', 'Attap Chee'(Palm Tree Seeds), 'Red Ruby' (Water Chestnut coated in Colored Sago), 'Lot Chong'(Pandan Flavored Rice Flour Droplets), 'Jackfruit' and 'Sticky Rice'. And iet the D.I.Y Game begins... Trust me, do not start with the 'Sticky Rice' first, else you will regret it. The scoop of ice cream is simply far too small as compared to the 8 different cups of toppings. As I wiped out 1/3 of the overall portion of toppings, the scoop of sweet coconut ice cream was completely gone. But it was fun mixing the different types of toppings of a different taste and texture and savor them at one go. At the earlier stage you might be mixing those that you favor the most, but as you move on, you will realize that you need a strong incentive to balance things a bit. And that's where the 'Sticky Rice' will step in. At the end of the day, despite of my huge appetite, I only to managed to wipe out 70% of all the toppings. And the nice waitresses over here was actually asking if I want the leftovers. A bit too much for my stomach therefore... Anyway if I happen to visit that restaurant again, I would probably just place an order for this, which is the most filling dessert that I have eaten up till now. :D

So where can you give the dessert a good try?
