Lunch was @ The whole earth (peck seah st)
I walked from chinatown to peck seah st and this place is really diffcult to locate.
I had to walk frm craig rd down duxton rd and asked a few ppl(whom are not sure too). I was abt to give up finding and when i turn my back, i saw ''THE WHOLE EARTH''. Im glad i found it and my stomach is calling for food.

The shop looks very clean and simple- with the sighboard '' The Whole earth''. It was just a walking distance away frm T.Pagar Mrt station but i think the location is not very ideal. They have moved frm Geylang to this present location.

They are the first thai-peranakan vegetarian restuarant in sp. What is offered are are some of the thai and peranakan dishes which u can find in that& peranakan restaurant. They substitute the meat with tofu, mushrooms & veggies.

Menu isnt very extensive- mushrm, veg, starters, rice and beverage.
The 2 salads which i intended to order is not available so i had the thai lettuce roll and a bowl of brown rice. The staff recommended me the stir-fried brocolli with oyster mushrms. However, i do not really like brocolli .

Pickles were served and the food arrive shortly. It consists of sweet ginger, sambal belanchan chilli and seaweed crisp. The balachan is very pungent and a little spicy. I like this! They made this themselves and it's not available for sale. Seaweed crisp is crispy. It is actually beancurd stick and seaweed and then fried.

The brown rice has a very good texture. It wasnt mushy and i can easily pick out the different grains. The thai lettuce roll consists of some tomatoes slices, lettuce leaves and a ''paste'' made frm tofu, chilli and some veggies. The use of different spices in this'' paste'' highly demonstrate the thai culture here. You would have to wrap the paste and tomatoes together with the lettuce leaves, otherwise, it will taste a little salty. I like this dish as it shows the creative-ness of the chef and it is very delicious. The serving is a little small though.

Svc here is very friendly and according to the staff, naive company @ east coast rd actually belongs to the same company.
