When we last visited Fourgather at Telok Ayer, we enjoyed their creative, fusion-inspired Thai dishes. Now, just six months later, the restaurant has expanded its offerings to include more authentic dishes with unique twists.
The vibrant, eclectic space was bustling on a weekday night, making it ideal for relaxed gatherings. The upbeat Thai music playing in the background definitely added to the atmosphere.
Beverages
We opted for non-alcoholic beverages and appreciated the balanced sweetness. My favourite is their Thai Chrysanthemum ($5.50) for its lovely herbal notes and how it effectively washed down the spice from the food.
Thai Chicken Breast Salad 3.8/5
We started with the Thai Chicken Breast Salad ($16.90), featuring tender chicken breast in a mix of Thai herbs, nutty roasted rice powder, and a tangy spicy dressing.
Tom Yum Soup Clear 4.2/5
Next, the Tom Yum Soup Clear – Seafood ($24.90) was a flavourful, spicy option that struck a perfect balance with its herbaceous ingredients. Diners can choose from additional toppings like Vegetable ($13.90), Chicken ($16.90) or Prawn ($19.90), and a creamy version is available for those who prefer it.
PINTO Thai Rice Porridge Set for 2 Pax 4.2/5
On a chilly, rainy day, the new PINTO Thai Rice Porridge Set for 2 Pax ($23.90) felt incredibly soothing. This set includes a pot of unlimited pandan porridge accompanied by four side dishes. We sampled an array, from Steamed Pork Patty with Salted Fish to Thai Stir-Fried Pickled Mustard with Egg.
One of the standout dishes was the Crispy Pork Belly, Fish Sausage, and Fried Anchovies Yum Salad. The fish sausage crisps soaked up the tangy, spicy dressing beautifully, making it an addictive table favourite.
Another unexpected delight was the Chye Poh with Egg, featuring generous portions of sweet, crunchy chye poh.
For larger groups, a 4-person portion ($52.90) includes 10 side dishes. All sides are also available as a la carte.
Creamy LAVA EGG with Basil Minced Pork 4.2/5
Another new dish was the Creamy LAVA EGG with Basil Minced Pork ($14.90), where a layer of velvety eggs covered jasmine rice, topped with fragrant basil minced pork. The dish’s spice level is adjustable, and diners can choose different proteins, such as fried pork belly (+$3), prawns (+$6) and seafood (+$11).
Thai Crab Laksa 4/5
We ended our meal with the Thai Crab Laksa ($20.90). Dip the rice noodles into the creamy and mildly spicy coconut curry, pairing it with chunks of blue flower crab meat, fresh herbs and vegetables.
While the menu is slightly pricey, our meals at Fourgather are always a delight. We find their food to be authentic, with a touch of modernity, and well-balanced.
