Isn't it typical? Days after writing that prawn crackers aren't served in Chinese restaurants in China as they are in every 'Chinese' restaurant in the UK, they only go and serve me prawn crackers. In my defence, it was a Thai restaurant in China.

 

I visited with a friend who ordered. We had the aforementioned crackers; specifically Coconut Songkhla Prawn Crackers. The name has no mention of chilli, but they were spicy. Nicely so.

Other dishes were "Thai Emperor Pineapple Fried Rice" which came with came with yellow pestilence and pork floss.

(My translation of the names in Chinese - No Thai names were shown.)

 

* The lettuce  was celtuce tops aka AA choy or 油麦菜 (yóu mài cài).

 

It was all OK for a quick dinner - neither of us were particularly hungry. The chicken was by far the best dish - I'd go back for that alone.
