Around 11 pm, I suddenly remembered it was the last day to redeem the Free Spicy Steamed Squid from Baan Thai’s Mulah SMS marketing promo on my phone. I quickly searched for a Baan Thai restaurant nearby and found that the closest one was Baan Thai 2 Seafood & Thai Cuisine at Old Klang Road (OKR), just a 10-minute drive from home.
Upon arriving, I asked the staff if I could redeem the promo there, considering it was the “2” branch. They assured me that redemptions were valid at any branch. The only condition was a minimum spend of RM20, and the redemption could be processed at the counter, as shown below.
After about 15 minutes, the Spicy Lime Squid was served.
I also ordered a bowl of rice and pandan water to go with it and saved the Red Ruby dessert to enjoy later.
Despite requesting for the squid to be less spicy, it was still quite fiery for me! However, the sour base of the dish really whetted my appetite, which was great since I hadn’t felt like eating earlier. As for the Red Ruby, it was delicious, as expected—it’s my favorite dessert at Baan Thai.
The final bill came up to RM20.75, and I only realized afterward that the free spicy steamed squid was worth RM42.90. What a steal!

I’ll definitely come back in the future for the live seafood since their operating hours stretch until 4.30 am, which perfectly aligns with my KL supper themes.
