For those who love a touch of heat, our menu offers a variety of spicy dishes that highlight the unique essence of Thai cuisine. Among our customer favorites are three standout dishes that capture the heart of Thailand, which are Drunken Noodles, Tom Yum, and Papaya Salad.

Let’s explore why these dishes are must-tries for anyone seeking the ultimate spicy Thai food experience.

Drunken Noodles

Drunken Noodles is known in Thailand as Pad Kee Mao. This iconic dish is a hearty, flavorful stir-fried noodle dish that’s beloved for its bold spices and aromatic ingredients. It features wide rice noodles tossed with fresh Thai basil, garlic, chili, and a colorful mix of vegetables. Choose from chicken, shrimp, beef, or tofu as your protein for a personalized twist.

The dish gets its name not from alcohol but from the myth that its intense flavors pair perfectly with a refreshing drink or were created as the ultimate remedy for late-night cravings.

Tom Yum

Tom Yum is Thailand’s most famous soup, celebrated for its perfect harmony of hot, sour, and savory flavors. This classic dish includes a rich broth infused with lemongrass, galangal, kaffir lime leaves, and fresh chili. Add shrimp, chicken, or tofu for a protein-packed meal that’s as nourishing as it is delicious.

This soup is a sensory delight, offering a kick of heat that’s mellowed by the tang of lime and the earthiness of Thai herbs. It’s the ultimate comfort food for spice lovers.

Papaya Salad

Papaya Salad, also known as Som Tum, is a refreshing yet fiery salad that perfectly embodies the Thai balancing flavors. Shredded green papaya is tossed with tomatoes, green beans, garlic, chili, lime juice, and fish sauce, creating a dish that’s equal parts spicy, tangy, and slightly sweet.

For added texture and flavor, you can pair it with sticky rice or grilled meat. It’s a dish that’s light yet deeply satisfying, ideal for those who enjoy fresh, bold flavors with a spicy kick.
