Popular Bangkok tourist attraction Greyhound Cafe is coming to Singapore at the end of next month. Opening up shop at Paragon, the restaurant chain will replace Cedele on the first level and bring in its modernised Thai and Western dishes.
Expect a space as quirky and chic as its 11 outlets in Bangkok (or the other 11 around the region), with about 150 menu items featured in the 100-seater. Signatures include the Greyhound Famous Fried Chicken Wings marinated in fish sauce, Complicated Noodles of minced pork in noodle sheets, and stir-fried spaghetti with lettuce and Thai anchovies. On the sweet side, there’s the coconut crepe cake and Thai milk tea granita, among others. Of course, there’ll also be new dishes such as spicy seafood soup and Thai green curry.
Although sauces like Pad Thai, chilli and salad dressings will come from Thailand, don’t expect prices to remain the same. Menu items here will be at least 30 percent higher than those in Bangkok — that basically means a meal at Greyhound will probably cost about $30 (including drinks), pretty much the same as any other cafe on our shores.
