What’s up with Thai restaurants and funny names ? Thai-riffic, Thai-na-town, Thai-tanic and the list goes on. It seems there is an infatuation with this naming convention and it’s almost weird seeing a Thai restaurant with a normal name such as Lao Village. But of course, Lao Village is Lao and not Thai. Yet you often find the food can be quite similar, a bit like Middle eastern food.

Rambutan isn’t your usual Thai restaurant. The food isn’t outstanding, but it’s alot better than the rubbish some restaurants churn out and then claim to be ‘modern/fusion’ restaurants. Despite it being heavily based on modern Thai, I think they do a pretty good job on ensuring the flavours and ingredients are atleast unique in taste and presentation.

There were only a handful of Chinese restaurants (that I saw anyway) about 5 years ago, which was the last time I was in Berlin. Now it would seem that Asian restaurants have become more prominent – and not just Chinese or Vietnamese restaurants, there’s also Korean, Japanese, and Thai.

It is safe to say that the mere mention of the word “Cabramatta” provokes fear into some non western-Sydneysiders. Often relating to images of drug addicts shooting heroin in some dark alleyway, gangs roaming the streets and drug dealings occurring at every turn. Sorry to break it to those people, but Cabramatta is quite the [...]

Looking for quick, scrumptious, authentic thai food? Thainatown is THE place to go… Well, Thainatown is one of MY favourite thai places to go to. I give a personal vote to this place having the BEST pad thai I’ve ever had in my life (big call here!). I’ve never been to Thailand so I wouldn’t [...]

As an avid Thai food lover, I’m always on the look out for new joints offering authentic but not pretentious Thai/Lao food. Whilst driving down Canley Vale Rd, H and I noticed a new brightly lit restaurant packed with patrons waiting to be seated. Refusing to join the forlorn looking faces in the harsh cold [...]

Every Saturday morning, Howard and I embark on our ritual of meeting up in Cabramatta . We walk around to see which restaurants are not crammed with people and ones which we have not tried before.
We spot an empty restaurant at some dodgy corner, succumbing to the idea that a deserted restaurant serves less than [...]

“Cheap” and “Thai” are becoming (or already is) synonymous when it comes to dining out, so it’s not really surprising that I seem to end up at 12 Spices quite often (though pedantically, they also serve Laos food); it is also terribly close to where I live (always a plus when laziness sets in).
