Tom Yum Hot Pot
This iconic Thai soup combines tiger prawns with mushrooms in a silky coconut broth. The dish balances salty, sour, sweet, and spicy elements characteristic of Thai cuisine. Served in a traditional hot pot presentation, it features galangal, lemongrass, and fresh chillies to create an authentic flavour profile that has made it a signature dish since our opening in 2010.
Massaman Curry
A Southern Thai specialty featuring tender lamb shank in creamy coconut sauce. The rich curry contains peanuts, onions, and potatoes, reflecting its Malaysian influences. Our chefs prepare it using slow-simmered techniques to develop deep flavours. This milder curry option maintains authenticity while catering to diverse spice preferences across our three locations.
Pad Thai Noodles
Thailand's most famous noodle dish features rice noodles stir-fried with egg, vegetables, and ground peanuts. Our version maintains traditional preparation methods while using locally sourced ingredients. The dish balances textures and flavours through precise cooking techniques passed down through generations of Thai chefs working in our kitchens.
Seafood Specials
Daily seafood dishes showcase seabass, prawns, and mixed seafood in Thai-inspired preparations. Options include Seabass Choo Chee with red coconut curry and Asian Marine with roasted chilli paste. Each dish follows traditional Thai seafood cooking methods while ensuring freshness through daily market selections for our three restaurant locations.
Thai Desserts
Traditional Thai desserts feature mango sticky rice, pandan pancakes, and premium ice cream. Our pastry chefs use authentic recipes for these sweet endings to meals. The menu includes both classic Thai desserts and modern interpretations, all maintaining the balance of flavours that defines Thai cuisine.

Good quality of food and large variety of dishes. Rice must be ordered as side dish, one portion of rice is too much for one person, it's better to take one for two persons. Staff is very friendly.

Report
Another yummy Thai restaurant in Newcastle with good service, and a menu of all the usual standards, well executed. I didn't have any starters, but my friends really enjoyed them, and I thought the pad see ewe was great. My husband was a little less than impressed by the curry, but since I enjoyed my noodles so much, I think we'll definitely go back for a return visit and try more things!
