\"HahaPreviously known as Hahaha Seafood Restaurant at Foch Road at Jalan Besar, they moved to Ngee Ann City, and revamped to Haha Thai Restaurant. It is a family business, which branched out from a seafood supplier, so you know they get the best of seafood.<\/p>\n

\"HahaIf you have Thai friends, you\u2019d know when they reply whatsapp, they go \u201c555.\u201d Which means \u201chahaha\u201d to them, because 5 is pronounced as \u201cha.\u201d The restaurant is inspired by King Rama V, or King Rama HA, known as a good chef, who cooked with his subjects. The restaurant also means \u201chaha\u201d as in laughter, hoping to provide a happy space for its customers.<\/p>\n

\"hahaThe food, however, contradicted the name; the restaurant means serious business and\u00a0the food is no laughing matter, and\u00a0as a result, the dishes were rather delicious. Oysters<\/strong> ($2.80\/pc, above) were plump and juicy. Tom yum talay <\/strong>($9.80\/ $16.80, below) sweet, creamy, and slightly spicy. Crispy egg floss<\/strong> ($11.80) had an airy texture. The winner, sambal kangkong <\/strong>($8.80), was complex, sweet-spicy, and then salty.<\/p>\n

\"hahaThere were, however, some misses: the salted egg soft shelled crab<\/strong> ($14.80) was nice on its own, but no taste of salted egg. Otah <\/strong>($8.80) was stodgy. The Himalayan salt baked seabass<\/strong> ($49.80, below), overpriced. Buttercorn prawns<\/strong> ($18.80) could be fresher.<\/p>\n

\"haha<\/p>\n

Must. Save. Space. For. Desserts. They make their own ice cream: the Thai milk tea ice cream<\/strong> was aromatic with tea. The coconut ice cream<\/strong> light and refreshing.<\/p>\n

\"hahaThe red velvet lava cake with coconut ice cream <\/strong>($10.80) was unforgettable, one of the best desserts I had this year. It oozed red velvet and cream cheese, sweet, chocolatey, with a tinge of salt. MUST ORDER.<\/p>\n

\"HahaTo Infinity and back! The mango slices were arranged in an auspicious infinity sign. $11.80.<\/em><\/p>\n

While the food was generally good, the portions were small. (Haha Thai sits on prime land, so the pricing\/portion is understandable.) At a Thai restaurant, 4 persons would normally order 4-5 dishes to be full, but at Haha Thai, you may need to order 6-8 dishes. But as the food is pleasing, perhaps you wouldn\u2019t mind ordering more to share, more to love.<\/p>\n
