Recently I went to Bangkok with my friend, her main agenda - shopping; me? FOOD...delicious n much cheaper than here in KL (of course....eyes rolling).
As u can see from the list below I think in term of numbers we can find Thai restaurants in KL much easier than malay restaurants....almost every corner of Klang Valley will have at least 1 or 2 numbers of Thai eateries. But, taste wise not that authentic......
Anyway, not all restaurants listed below are good, read the review by bloggers before you decide where to go. I've been to Tamarind Hill (great ambience, food quite good but expensive); Flying Chillies (food is good but I wish they'll serve their tom yum piping hot instead of luke warm); Nong & Jimmy - my bf n I love the food there. Anyway, read on n try these restaurants for yourself n share with us your experience.
**Some of the restaurants below are pork-free i.e. not certified halal by JAKIM because they serve alcohol at their premises or they did not apply for halal certification from JAKIM. Check before ordering food to satisfy yourself that meat served was procured from halal certified supplier.

14. Name of the place : Wangsa Seafood. Whats good: Tom Yam. Some description : Try the Tom Yam, I have been to all expensive and calim to be an authentic Thai Foodspecialist, but this one really beats the rest in term of superb taste on thick and juicy Tom Yam soup, very nice Kerabu Mangga at a very-very reasonable price, just like normal Tom Yam Stall pricing.Bet you all will agreed this is among the best Tom Yam places in KL.To get there, its not far from Wangsa Melawati Mosque, Enter after Traffic light at the Army Camp either from Wangsa Maju or Keramat, once you are on the position where the Mosque is on the Left, Go straight for ½-1 kilometer and you will see Wangsa Seafood on your right side of the road.

Ohh forgot to mention, we frequented Vicchuda in Damansara often too – well quite near to my place and food is good – southern thai food.
Another most frequented eatery? Santai in Tmn Tun and Tesco Mutiara Damansara. I discovered their outlet in Tesco first, used to drop by at Tesco food court for dinner on the way home, since then I’ll drop by at Tesco just for Santai. Some time after that, my bf n I were driving around Tmn Tun for food n stumbled onto Santai, told him the food in Tesco is good so we decided to try there n now it is one of our favorite restaurants.
Loong time ago we used to visit Anuar Tomyam in Kg Bharu often too, now not any more, too far. Couldn’t find any write up on Anuar Tomyam but quite a few on Vicchuda n Santai.
My sis n family love Kak Chah Tom Yam in Ampang. Couldn’t get any write up on them but few forums praise food serves there. And someone posted its location – check out below.

If I'm not mistaken Anuar Tom Yam is in Jln Daud Kg Baru or around that area.
