My Elephant has been in the little food books of most foodies for its authentic Thai cuisine. It is somewhat casual cafe dining, so space is limited especially in its Sri Hartamas and Section 17 outlets.
Cute pigeon holes made of bricks
Chicken Maryland with Green Curry
The Chicken Maryland with Green Curry came with a fried egg atop red rice. The piece of chicken drumstick and thigh was cooked thoroughly, with a good coating of batter to create the crisp all fried chicken lovers covet. However, the green curry appeared rather unappetizing, simply because of the layer of oil that floated atop it. It came up to about 4-5 tablespoons of oil being scooped out carefully (God bless our coronary arteries).
We also ordered the Phad Thai, one of the must-haves on the menu. The rice noodles were springy and chewy and the dish was presented beautifully. While I prefer my bean sprouts crunchier, I am aware that crunchier usually means more raw and most people are not great fans of that raw green taste. The chilli was also quite strong, so word of caution to Phad Thai feasters: do not mix all the chilli into your dish!
A mouth-watering presentation with chilli, sugar and nuts on the side
We arrived at noon and it seemed empty but quickly filled up towards lunch hour. The lunch sets are definitely value for money for hot food.
We'll be back for more, perhaps the Rice with Tom Yum Soup and the Thai Laksa.
