Farang

An explosion of flavours, like a party in your mouth. Spicy, subtle, fresh, exotic and the turmeric bread is special. Go for the feasting menu to not miss out on a wide variety of invigorating tastes and textures. Courses came out a bit quicker than we were ready for but we the street kitchen style is charming and lively. One of the best culinary experiences in town.

Had a reservation there for Saturday evening. We arrived at the restaurant and we were immediately shown to a table for two. Once seated, we were given the menus and asked for a bottle of tap water. As we were trying to decide if we should get the sea bass as a large plate to share between two people, the waiter recommended that the dish would be enough for two people. However, from previous experience with this kind of fish, we chose individual curries instead. Our order was: prawn crackers as snacks, Miang, Gai Prik, Prawns Gătit, Beef curry, jasmine rice and two turmeric roti. The first to arrive were the prawn crackers, which were nice and crispy. Next was the Miang, which basically are leaves with a filling of prawns, nuts and herbs. There were only three on a plate which costs £9, a bit steep in our opinion. Up next was the Gai Prik, which are fried chicken fillets -3 pieces in the plate - with a sauce. The texture was nice and crispy and the chicken was flavourful. Thinking back, we wished we had this instead of the Miang. Our mains, the beef/prawns curry with rice and two rotis were the last ones. The beef curry was on the sweeter side, whereas the prawn one had a strong fire to it. The rotis were very crispy, with a nice hint of salt. During our meal we were given a check back, and at the end we were asked if we wanted any deserts or coffees. But as we were full already, we had to turn that down. The curries are on the expensive side and they do not include rice. The 3 stuffed leaves are something that can be avoided altogether. Nonetheless, this place deserves 5 stars overall.

Been here a few times now and every time it's been absolutely fantastic! The changes to the menu every so often make it really dynamic and there's always something new to try. The dishes are just next level flavours and it's such good value for money! Really friendly staff and great service. Can't recommend this place enough!

Beautifully crafted, delicious dishes and excellent service. Atmosphere was relaxed and the background music was gentle enough that my mother and I could have a decent conversation. We opted for the tasting menu as it was a special occasion and we weren’t disappointed. Favourites were the salted turmeric prawn ‘miang’ bites of toasted coconut & peanut caramel with sour fruits, served in an edible betel leaf, the Gai Prik’ - Crispy Thai battered chicken (free range/high welfare), fish sauce glaze, blood orange, herbs and lime, plus the vegan crispy blooming onion aromatic coconut curry with wok smoked vegetables, pickles & ginger — was served with 'hom mali' jasmine rice and salted curry leaf, turmeric & garlic butter roti. I would have given 5 stars but they didn’t have the vegan sorbet on the menu (raspberry and pineapple) so that left us slightly disappointed. I also would like to see the juices upgraded to fresh! The bottled orange juice was very substandard after living in Cyprus and Cape Town for years, where everything is fresh. Arrive hungry!
