Having dined at numerous Thai restaurants including some of the best in Singapore like the highly acclaimed Sabai @ Ngee Ann City, Yingthai on Purvis Street, Sukhotai @ Boat Quay and Thanying @ Amara Hotel, we have finally found our favourite Thai food in a little unpretentious eaterie located on the groundfloor of Shaw Tower, Beach Road.
Ah Loy Thai is run by a husband-and-wife team assisted by several foreign workers. This is a no-frills establishment which means you wait around until a table is available and expect to wait at least 20-30 minutes during the peak hours. You then complete your order form and pay up at the cashier. The food, when ready, will be brought to your table by the foreign helpers. If you require any extra orders, go back to the cashier.
You will find all of this inconveniences, including the long wait, to be worth the while when you have tasted the food. They are of surprisingly high quality considering the very affordable pricing. I don't recall anything costing more than $10 on the order form.
