Starters: A Flavourful Beginning

Begin your meal with an array of inventive starters that showcase the bold, fragrant tastes of Thai cuisine. Choose up to three from our enticing list, each carefully crafted to delight the palate:

  • Salted Turmeric Prawn Miang Bites with seasonal fruits and betel leaf deliver a balanced, refreshing bite that combines sweet and savoury flavours.
  • For a crispy sensation, the Thai Battered Chicken is glazed with fish sauce and topped with blood orange, fresh herbs, and lime for a zesty finish.
  • Enjoy the Crispy Pork Belly, complemented by pickled apple, fennel, and a tangy raspberry nam yum sauce—a perfect combination of textures and freshness.
  • Our Satay Skewers of tender chicken or tofu, paired with a spicy Thai peanut chilli sauce, offer a crowd-pleasing option.
  • The Spicy Pomelo Salad with lemongrass, green mango, and pineapple nam yum provides a refreshing, vibrant vegan choice.
  • For a taste of smoky, spicy goodness, the Crispy Aubergine seasoned with salted curry leaves, lemon zest, and burnt chilli sauce is an umami-packed vegan starter.

 

Mains: Bold, Aromatic Flavours to Savour

For the main course, choose up to three dishes that reflect the depth and complexity of Thai cuisine, featuring warm, comforting flavours:

  • Tiger Prawns in a white turmeric and crispy shallot coconut sauce offer a luxurious option with a silky, aromatic profile.
  • For those who enjoy spice, our Red Hot Jungle Curry with aged beef shin, green beans, mint, and wild ginger brings rich, layered flavours to the fore.
  • The Crispy Blooming Onion with straw mushrooms, wok-smoked vegetables, pickles, and ginger is a satisfying vegetarian choice packed with umami.
  • Experience the depth of our Prawn or Chicken Panang Curry, made with kaffir lime, coconut milk, and red chillies—a classic Thai dish with a rich, comforting taste.
  • If you’re after gentler spice, the Thai Green Curry with chicken or spring vegetables, coconut milk, courgettes, green beans, and sweet basil is a delightful option.
  • For a familiar classic, our Pad Thai combines Thai rice noodles, egg, sweet turnip, spring onions, bean sprouts, and peanuts in a tangy tamarind sauce.

 

Sides: Perfect Accompaniments

No Thai-inspired feast is complete without sides that elevate each dish. Choose from the following:

  • Our Green Papaya Salad with peanuts, carrot, tomatoes, fine beans, and a spicy Thai dressing adds a refreshing, crunchy contrast to the mains.
  • Coconut Rice or Sticky Rice make excellent accompaniments, each adding a unique texture to complement the curries.
  • Turmeric & Roasted Garlic Butter Roti Bread with curry leaf salt is ideal for scooping up sauces and adds a warm, satisfying element to the meal.

Desserts: Sweet Endings

Finish the feast with one of our carefully crafted desserts, each adding a touch of sweetness to end the meal on a high note:

  • Mango Sticky Rice is a traditional Thai-inspired dessert, combining sweet mango with sticky rice for a creamy, fruity treat.
  • Indulge in our Banana Split topped with rich chocolate caramel sauce and ice cream, a playful and nostalgic choice.
  • For a lighter finish, try our Pea Flour Pannacotta drizzled with pineapple syrup—a unique, refreshing dessert.
