“Worth a small detour for diners who like lamb, Thai basil, and direct garlic flavor. Rice, a separate plate of lamb, and a lightly sweet thickened soup can be combined according to appetite and how much meat you want.”

WHY VISIT

Why add it to your itinerary?

01
Lamb with basil and fresh garlic

The signature here is the combination of lamb and seasonings: the slices have a touch of fat and natural sweetness, Thai basil brings fragrance, and sweet-savory soy sauce with chopped garlic adds a sharp aromatic edge. Diners who like bold aromas can adjust it themselves.

02
Beyond lamb rice: a meat plate and thick soup

If you want more meat, add a Lamb Plate and dip it slowly in the garlic sauce. If you prefer soup, Lamb Thick Soup comes with wood ear and bamboo shoots and has a thickened texture that stays light enough to pair with rice.

Lamb Rice MetroBites visit photo

Lamb Rice

White rice is generously covered with medium-thick lamb slices that have a glossy touch of fat and no strongly bothersome gamey smell. Thai basil and sweet-savory soy sauce with chopped garlic add extra layers to the meat.

Lamb Plate MetroBites visit photo

Lamb Plate

A large plate of medium-thick lamb slices with a clean, gently sweet flavor, suited to anyone who wants more meat. Dip the slices in soy sauce with raw chopped garlic and the garlic aroma and sweet-savory seasoning coat the meat.

Lamb Thick Soup MetroBites visit photo

Lamb Thick Soup

The broth is lightly sweet and refreshing, with starch thickening that never becomes overly sticky. Wood ear and bamboo shoots add texture, freshly blanched lamb adds savoriness, and black vinegar or pepper can be added to taste.

FIRST VISIT

First visit: how to order

01
Call ahead to ask about takeout

Some regulars call ahead and then pick up their food. If you plan to take away, ask first whether pre-ordering and pickup can be arranged that day.

METROBITES LOCAL TIP
Add the basil while the rice is hot

Add the Thai basil while the lamb rice is still hot so the steam brings out its aroma, then spoon on the soy sauce with chopped garlic to taste. Raw garlic is assertive, so start with a little and adjust from there.
