Freshly Made Red Ruby Dessert the Traditional Way

One dessert that many guests remember after visiting Thong Thai Bistro is our Red Ruby dessert. In Thailand, Red Ruby is loved for its refreshing sweetness, colourful appearance, and most importantly — its texture.

At Thong Thai Bistro, every order of Red Ruby is treated as a fresh order. Chef June does not believe in preparing large batches too early because texture matters greatly in this dessert.

The crunchy coating surrounding the water chestnut is one of the most important parts of authentic Red Ruby. If prepared too early or left sitting for too long, the texture softens and loses the bite that makes the dessert enjoyable.

That is why Chef June prefers preparing it fresh so diners can enjoy the contrast between the crunchy red rubies, cold coconut milk, jackfruit, and refreshing sweetness the way it is traditionally enjoyed in Thailand.

For Chef June, even desserts deserve the same level of care, timing, and attention as the savoury dishes coming out from the kitchen.

Sometimes the smallest details — like crunchiness — make all the difference 😊
