The atmosphere of BKK Bistro and Bar ORTO
There are just a few attention-grabbing issues to notice about eating at BKK Bistro and Bar. Firstly, it’s situated at ORTO. Which means that there are some areas with water views over the fishing ponds of ORTO.

What we had at BKK Bistro and Bar ORTO
1. Thai Ice Tea – $4.80
The Thai Ice Tea (Milk Tea) tasted as the way it needs to be. A taaaaad bit on the skinny aspect. However nothing to complain about. Nevertheless, with regard to drinks, we seen that many common prospects would simply order the bubble tea subsequent door and never order drinks from BKK Bistro and Bar – apparently that is allowed. Do give this selection a strive in your subsequent go to!
2. Boat Noodles (Glass Noodles, Tom Yum, Prawn) – $0.80
3. Boat Noodles (Glass Noodles, Tom Yum, Beef) – $0.80
4. Boat Noodles (Glass Noodles, Natural, Pork) – $0.80
5. Boat Noodles (Rice Noodles, Tom Yum, Pork) – $0.80
We’ve ordered just a few combos that type of encompassed all of the accessible choices. So let’s work by means of the choices
Soup: When it comes to soup, you possibly can select between Tom Yum and Natural. For us, Tom Yum comes up tops. It was tangy, barely spicy and quite engaging. However, the natural possibility was…meh. Didn’t actually get what it actually was. It wasn’t natural nor was it savoury. A quite odd selection of soup base.
Meats: Beef got here out tops with pork coming in a detailed second . The prawn possibility seemed quite miserly although it may very well be because of the comparative costs between these choices.
Noodles: As for noodles, it was a tie. Tom most well-liked the rice noodles whereas Kate most well-liked the glass noodles.
Therefore, to conclude, should you’re making an attempt out the BKK Boat Noodles at ORTO, go together with both the Beef Tom Yum Rice Noodles or the Pork Tom Yum Glass Noodles.
6. Glass Noodles, Tom Yum, Beef Bowl – $7.80
The truth is, we loved these combos a lot that we went for the big portion as an alternative. Size and portion clever, we guesstimated that it was most likely the identical should you ordered 10 of the identical bowls. Therefore, should you already know what you need and never need to “wrestle” with a number of small bowls, the meat or pork bowls (priced at $7.80) would do the trick.
7. Thai Papaya Salad – $8.80
Throughout our go to, we took a go searching and noticed that just about each desk ordered the Thai Papaya Salad. We wouldn’t say that it was fairly priced because the portion was really fairly small for an virtually $10 dish. Nevertheless, style clever, it was shiok! The papaya had a recent crunch to it and the fish sauce coupled with the dried shrimp, gave your entire dish an genuine style. 😋
8. Crispy Pork Stomach – $10.80
This dish was the largest disappointment. It was dry. Though the title of this dish does sound tempting, we are going to keep away from it the following time. In all probability go together with the BBQ rooster which we noticed at a number of tables.
9. Mango Pomelo Ice – $7.80
We initially needed to have mango sticky rice to spherical up the meal. Sadly, they had been out of mango sticky rice! Correspondingly, we had been devastated! 😭😭😭 Therefore, we needed to go together with mango pomelo ice as beneficial by our server. It was good however we most likely wouldn’t order it for our subsequent go to – somewhat too “icy” on style.
Conclusion
After dinner at BKK Bistro and Bar, we took a brief stroll at Decrease Seletar Reservoir to stroll off the energy 😅
