A typical Thai meal includes four main seasonings of salty, sweet, sour, and spicy. Dishes are best shared together and hence there is no concept of a ‘starter’. Order your meals keeping this in mind to truly experience your Thai culinary treats. If you are new to seafood or not sure which recipes your taste buds would agree with, opt for set menus. These ‘set menus’ are designed for diners who are less familiar with local authentic Thai food. The restaurant also offers gluten-free options on special request.
