We were in Putrajaya for the day, and while scouting around for dinner options, we found this - Chakri Express, a chain owned by Chakri Palace. Being tired of fast foods and Japanese, we decided to give this a try. The bill came up to RM60 for 2 person, a reasonably price for Thai food. I'll let the pictures do the talking

The soup wasn't too spicy, with just the right dash of tangy-ness, a combination of prawns and squids fills the bowl.

The battered prawn were fried to golden perfection, and topped with a creamy butter sauce with slight peaces of salted egg yolk. Hrmm, I sense a lil Chinese influence here.

I personally thought it could be improved with a lil more spicy-ness, and less coconut milk.Though it can't beat the one in Sri Ayutthaya, nevertheless, it was a good try.
