About Thai food
Some people believe Thai food to be spicy and indeed in some cases it is, but there are many dishes which are not spicy at all.
At the heart of Thai cuisine are the nutritious and healthy herbs, spices and flavourings that provide a dazzling array of delicious and exotic tastes that make Thai cuisine so unique. The basic seasonings are basil, ginger, coconut milk, coriander, fresh curry, garlic, lemon grass and lime, with a variety of other spices. Chilli, of course, is added to raise the temperature of the hotter fare. The ideal Thai meal is a harmonious blend of the spicy, the subtle, the sweet and sour, and is meant to be equally satisfying to eye, nose and palate.
Ideally, eating Thai food is a communal affair involving two or more people, principally because the greater the number of diners the greater the number of dishes that can be shared. The mainstay of a Thai meal is rice, which is eaten with a variety of other dishes. The food is not eaten combined on one plate but is sampled individually. Surprisingly, chopsticks are not used in Thailand except, on occasions, when eating one of the noodle dishes. In ancient Siam food was simply eaten with the hands but is now consumed using a fork and spoon.
It is hoped that these few words will enhance the pleasure of your meal and that you will enjoy our exciting and authentic Thai food selection.
