Farivalhu Maldives Restaurant or Tasty foo @Bangkok is a nice little cozy restaurant dedicated exclusively for travellers from the Maldives. Most Maldivians staying in the Pratunam area can be seen dining or having a coffee here. The restaurant looks like a upscale restaurant compared to almost all the restaurants in Pratunam area.
Menu options - great for anyone seeking Maldivian food. One can get most of the favourite Maldivian dishes, for others some Thai and International options are available
It has both an indoor dining area (air-conditioned) and an outdoor dining area. Smoking is only allowed in the outdoor area.
The food here is "Halaal", as in suitable for Muslims. Occasionally people from other nations also visit here. The menu is largely based on Maldivian cuisines, with some limited Thai and other international option available
The menu has a lot of Maldivian delicacies such as
1. 'mas-huni - minced dried fish mixed with scrapped coconut, chilli, onion salt and lemon juice,
2. 'roshi - soft paratha type bread',
3. 'rihaakuru - a local Maldivian fish paste delicacy',
4. 'kulhimas - spicy friend tuna'
5. short-eats/Finger foods such as 'gulha - deep fried fish balls made from tuna and coconut '.
They even provide 'dhufaa echchehi - sliced areca nuts, betel leaf plus which is a common snack after most of the main course meals in the maldives used to kill any remain taste (after-taste) and smell from the main meal.
Downside
The price is not worth the portion they serve. The portion served is too small or little making you order again. Price is way too high for the portion served.
