It’s a culinary journey that tantalises the senses and ignites a passion for discovering new tastes.
Taste Thai culinary diversity
While Pad Thai holds a special place in many hearts, it’s just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Thai food. Discover the diverse flavours of:
Northern Thailand: Experience the smoky allure of grilled meats, the fragrant warmth of curries and the rich, coconut-infused goodness of Khao Soi, a noodle soup with a unique depth of flavour.
North-eastern Thailand (Isan): Brace yourself for the bold and spicy flavours of Isan cuisine.
From the tangy Som Tum (papaya salad) to the minced meat salad known as Larb, each dish is a tribute to the region’s culinary creativity.
Southern Thailand: Embrace the aromatic spice and freshness of Southern Thai cuisine.
From seafood curries simmered with fragrant herbs and fresh seafood dishes bursting with flavour to the rich and complex Massaman curry, influenced by Persian traditions, Southern Thailand offers a feast of culinary delights that await you.
Enjoy the vibrant and tangy flavours of Som Tum — an iconic Thai papaya salad that's both refreshing and spicy.
A delicious masterpiece
Thai cuisine is not just about heat; it’s a harmonious blend of sweet, sour, salty and bitter elements.
Fresh herbs like lemongrass, galangal and kaffir lime leaves, combined with aromatic spices, create a medley of flavours that awakens the palate.
Each dish is a masterpiece of culinary artistry, blending traditional techniques with modern innovation.
Journey for the foodies
Whether you’re a spice enthusiast or prefer milder flavours, Thai cuisine offers a culinary adventure for every palate. Vegetarians and vegans can indulge in delicious dishes like Pad See Ew (stir-fried noodles with tofu), the comforting Tom Kha (coconut soup with mushrooms) and the creamy and flavourful Gaeng Keow Wan (green curry with vegetables).
Each dish provides a unique taste experience that showcases Thailand’s rich culinary heritage.
