VINTAGE THAI CUISINE @ DAMANSARA JAYA

After visiting this area while dining at Vintage Thai Cuisine recently, we realized there is still much more places to venture- other than the neighbourhood of Damansara Uptown of which is notoriously known to be inundated with various modern hipster cafes. Naturally, it was a delightful discovery where we could try out other local delicacy from the SEA region.

 Also known as Mueang Kao Thai Cuisine, Vintage Thai Cuisine is strategically located opposite Damansara Jaya’s housing area with a long row of shop houses, along the same row of Sudo Brew café too. This restaurant serves up authentic Thai Cuisine that has been refined to better suit local Malaysian palate. Nevertheless, should diners have other special request in terms of preferred flavour or the spiciness intensity, feel free to let them know and they would inform their Thai Chef to adjust them accordingly.

Quintessential featured dishes to kick off the feast that evening with some synonym appetizers that are representative of Thailand culture.

Homemade Thai Fish Cakes (MYR 18- 6pcs)

100% pure tenggiri fish paste infused with homemade chili paste, long beans and fish slices

Northern Thai Papaya Salad (MYR 13)

Spicy green papaya salad northern style (Isan), topped with dried red chili and marinated raw Thai crab in special homemade sauce. It’s quite a unique taste to me.

Stir Fried Paku (MYR Small MYR 13, Big MYR 19)

Paku veggie stir fried in Thai belacan sauce or optional Thai oyster sauce. It would be great if it was less salty. Best paired with a plate of warm rice.

Chicken Feet Salad (MYR 13)

Springy salad made with Chef’s special sauce of saltish spicy, sweet and sour.

I always enjoy this iconic appetizers since young- just watch out that it can be bit spicy as you indulge more :D

Son-In-Law Eggs (Small MYR 12, Big MYR 19)

Fried boiled egg served with Thai tamarind sauce and fried onions.

Seemingly common but the gravy makes all the difference! It had the lovely balanced of both sweet and sour nuance, yum!

Signature Dancing Fish (Seabass MYR 50, Tilapia MYR 45 or Red Snapper MYR 85)

We had the seabass where it was deep fried till golden brown before tossed with miang kham ingredients and sourish spicy sauce, rendering it sensational taste in every bite. It could be bit spicy to some, but you could always request them to tone down on the spiciness level.

Miang Kham is actually roasted grated coconut mixed with potpourri of condiments and special sauce before wrapped within cha plu leaf- which also known as ‘one bite wrap’.

Super Moh Fai Talay (MYR 99)

Steamboat style pot filled with assorted seafood combination and soup of your choice- you my choose from Red Tom Yum, Clear Tom Yum, Coconut Tom Yum, Garlic Lime Chili Soup or Gaeng Som.

This Thai seafood pot came with whole fish, asari clams, 6XL tiger prawns, squid and scallop in its Signature Tom Yum.

Apart from the savoury dishes, we were also introduced with the recommended desserts and quenchers.

Thai Milk Tea, Green Tea Latte and Thai Lime Red Soda (MYR 6)

Thai Fragrant Coconut (MYR 8)

Thai Red Ruby (MYR 6)

Water chestnut served with honey jackfruit, crushed ice and coconut cream.

Personally, I prefer my ice to be more refined and slightly richer in coconut cream.

Coconut Ice Cream (MYR 12)

Premium coconut ice cream topped with fragrant coconut flakes and assorted toppings.


Signature Coconut Shake (MYR 11)

Among all the sweet candidates, I enjoy this most.

Overall, this place offers a warm and cozy dining ambiance that is perfect for both family and friends to gather over for a casual spread of Thai cuisine. Perhaps you could also check out this place the next time you are nearby and wishing to try other style of cooking instead of the usual Western fusion- you might be delighted.
