The Tourism Authority of Thailand, Malaysia (TAT) unveils its “EAT THAI, VISIT THAILAND 2019” campaign, to mark a collaboration between tourism and restaurants in Malaysia. This is in line with the Amazing Thailand’s “Open to the New Shades” campaign, focusing on five main travel sectors to help international visitors experience the Kingdom from a new perspective. The concept includes: Gastronomy, Arts and Crafts, Thai Culture, Nature, and Thai Way of Life.
This EAT THAI, VISIT THAILAND 2019 campaign, which begins on March 20 – April 30, is a collaboration between TAT and all the eight outlets of Mr Tuk Tuk in Malaysia. Mr. Tuk Tuk introduced some new dishes and drinks for the occasion. Thai street food is very popular among Malaysians, and Mr. Tuk Tuk offers consumers quality and delicious Thai dishes that are Halal certified. They proved to be delicious and authentically tasty, and there are many such Halal restaurants in Thailand.
The newly introduced dishes include:
Firstly, a very refreshing drink
Thai Ice Lemongrass tea with crispy waterchestnut pearls.
The waterchestnut pearls were crunchy and a unique addition to this otherwise normal lemongrass tea. Had an additional cup of this during the event hehehe
Thai Fresh Oyster with Lime Sauce.
Oyster lovers! You can enjoy your favourite raw seafood at Mr Tuk Tuk!
Thai Prawn Salad with Lemon grass. We were privileged to be able to mix our own prawn salad at the event.
The sauce was sweet and spicy and with the pan fried prawn, it tasted super yummy! Definitely one of my favourite salad here.
Cooking demo was also held to teach us how to make this delicious salad.
Fried Tofu with Basil Leaves.
This is very Chinese style and I felt the new dishes were a fusion of many cuisines.
Thai Seafood Otak-Otak.
Mm...this was a rather unique dish and although I am not a fan of otak-otak surprisingly I love the taste of it.
The new dessert added was the Thai Pumpkin Custard (centre).
Again, very unique and I initially thought the combo of pumpkin with custard was weird until I had it in my mouth. The mix was good and creamy =)
During this campaign, diners who spend more than RM50 per receipt at any of the eight Mr Tuk Tuk outlets will stand a chance to win one of the 20 prizes which include a FREE trip to Bangkok for two persons plus a 3 days 2 nights hotel stay, five luggage, ten handbags and four Mr. Tuk Tuk dining vouchers.
People and Thailand and Malaysia love to eat and the food bond people together. Many Malaysian tourists travel to Thailand with the objective to taste Thai food. This year the new 2019 edition of MICHELIN Guide, reaches to Phuket and Phang-nga. This proves that Thailand has a wide variety of food for everyone, from MICHELIN Star restaurants, street food, HALAL food to fine-dining and many more.
TAT is working hard to promote Thailand in every possible way and to reach out to broader audience groups, such as the young travelers or the millennial, food lovers, high-end travelers, health enthusiasts, sport lovers, honeymoon couples and others.
So, if you feel lucky and think that you can win a trip to Bangkok for FREE, don't forget to dine at Mr Tuk Tuk!!
