28 January 2012: Mae Salong Restaurant (美斯乐餐厅) is a restaurant located in a quite secluded housing area in Sungai Petani. It occupies quite a huge compound and has very good ambience with Balinese-like furnishing. You can choose either to dine indoor or outdoor. The outdoor furnishing includes water mill, water fountain, pond, playground, garden, etc... Since it's at night and I was using a basic point and shoot camera, I did not manage to capture any good photo there, which is such a waste. Anyway, photos of Mae Salong can be found in their facebook photos.

Mae Salong serves mainly Thai food. I was there for Chinese New Year gathering dinner with my relatives. Since there are almost 30 of us, we made advance reservation for 3 tables. Here comes the food...

I'm not sure of the name of the dishes specifically because I'm not the person placing the order. As for the quality of the food, I would say they are generally average. A point worth mentioning is that the grilled fish wasn't well-cooked. Hence, we return it and request them to replace with another fish. It took them really long to come with the replacement, most probably because it's Chinese New Year season and they are really busy and under-staff.

Anyway, the cost of these dishes for a table of 10 pax is RM300. This is slightly more expensive than average restaurant in Sungai Petani which potentially serves better food. If you are looking for a place with good ambience, this restaurant is highly recommended.
