  • Relaxed and tranquil dining space

    The venue offers a comfortable local setting with acoustic considerations and side-road access keeping street noise down.

    The decoration is well thought out to keep the reflected noise down with a side road access so there is no road noise.

  • Traditional Thai street delicacies

    The kitchen prepares rare Thai street market pancakes seldom seen across standard Australian restaurant menus.

    I recommend the Thai pancakes which is common in the markets in Thailand but I've not seen on menus in Australia.

  • Authentic and complex flavor profiles

    Diners experience authentic regional cooking with faithful consistency and standout specialties like scallops in red curry.

    I ordered the scallops in a red curry sauce that was phenomenal - the scallops were perfectly cooked and the creamy, spicy curry was complex and delicious.
