Coconut Bay @ Rowland Heights

This place has been in town for a long long time, but I never enjoy eating Thai food so never wanna try here. A friend took me here to try the GOOD Thai food. Thai food that’s not the typical Pad Thai or Tom Yum Soup. We ordered Garlic Pork Pot Rice, Spicy Beef Thai Noodles, Mango Sticky Rice, and black Thai Tea. Overall the restaurant is great place for get together!

This rest. used to be Sam Woo... Big restaurant but it was not full on Friday night. I guess business isn't as good as before~

Black Thai Tea...never know you can order Thai Tea without milk!!! It's so good! I can't drink milk so this is perfect for me! It does taste a little like ice tea from Taiwan.

Garlic Pork Pot Rice – Super good!!! Smell of fried garlic with pork oil…yum~ Extremely oil dish but the flavor is so tasty. I had some leftover I ate it for next morning’s breakfast~

Spicy Beef Thai Noodle - This is not spicy at all. I think Pho taste better~ For some reason it smells like Taiwanese Beef Noodle Soup but taste totally different~

Mango Sticky Rice - I seen people order this so wanna try it out myself. Mmn, it's kinda weird. The white sauce is kinda salty. The mango is really sweet and soft.

Supatra's Thai Food

Found this restaurant by accident. My intern and I went out for a site visit one day and decided to eat something before heading back to the office. With the help of her internet phone & yelp.com we came here. This restaurant is located at a typical strip mall with typical exterior. Inside is pretty fancy tho. (Srprised~) I just ordered a Veggie Pad Thai and my intern ordered ginger chicken or something. Both meals came with soup or salad… soup soup please~ The soup looked kinda spicy and gross when the waitress brought it over to me. I didn’t wanna try it til my intern said it’s pretty good and it’s not spicy. Yup, she was right…it’s GOOD!

Typical strip mall rest.

Interior...pretty fancy

They even have a bar too!

Funky looking soup... looks spicy and gross but it was really good~

Veggie Pad Thai - tasted so so... a bit too sweet for my intern and I

Ginger chicken w/veggies - this dish is very good!!!! Spicy and flavorfull~

Siam Taste of Asia

I found out about this place from yelp.com and other’s website. It’s my first time been to this place, and I thought it wasn’t too bad. But I am not a big fan for Thai food. Just like what everyone says this restaurant is located very very ghetto of Santa Ana. Very tiny little Thai restaurant in the middle of Mexican area. Well, bad day for us to come cuz their A/C was out!!! I ordered Thai Ice…crap I didn’t know there is no refills…I was done with my drink way before my meal was serve. Ended up asking for ICE WATER!!!
Since I was still waiting for my friend who runs late all the time… we ordered their famous Fried Garlic Tofu.
Man, the tofu was BURNING hot when it came out. I was going to leave 5 pieces for my friend but we ended up eating it all..wahahaha It was very crispy outside and soft juicy tofu inside and the dipping sauce is delicious too! I have to say it’s better than the fried tofu at Chinese restaurant! Definitely a must have coming here.
Grilled Beef Salad… mmn everyone said it’s a must order item really??? Hong and I thought it’s just like Carne Asada without the tortilla. The beef is soft but no big WOW for us.
Pad Thai Chicken. I thought it was decent. But to Hong and Sunil, you can get better ones else where plus bigger plate.
We also ordered the Sea Bass with tamarind sauce. It was this tiny little fried fish that cost 10 bucks and have to pay 1 dollar for rice to go with it. Not worth it. I think McDonald’s Fillet o Fish is better! I didn’t like the Tamarind sauce too much thos, too heavy for me.

Few other things but forgot to take photos of it...
Overall we spend $45 on dinner
Coming back here...na I rather go some where else
