About Palm The Wokker

Woodville Gardens locals head here for uncompromising Thai street cooking rich in wok hei. Charcoal-kissed moo ping skewers arrive tender and juicy, while broad rice noodles in the char kway teow carry deep char and smoke. The kitchen doesn’t dull regional flavors either, pounding somtum with fermented fish and salted crab or tailoring chili heat directly to your preference. Diners stretch family catch-ups over rich beef massaman, crisp eggplant, and generous bowls of boat noodle soup.

  • Uncompromising Regional Flavor: Somtum comes prepared with traditional fermented fish and salted crab for true regional depth.
  • Tailored Heat Levels: Guests can calibrate heat levels per plate to match personal tolerance without losing balance.
  • Wok Hei & Charcoal Skewers: The kitchen delivers smoky char kway teow and glazed pork skewers fresh off the flames.
