Chai Thai

Overview

Craving Thai food, but a bit tired of ordering the same pad thai dish every damn time? We feel you. Luckily, the team at Chai Thai in New Farm is serving up some seriously worthy alternatives. This eye-popping menu is extensive, covering everything from curries and soups to dumplings and fishcakes.

Here are a few favourites to get you started. We love the barramundi with shiitake mushroom, ginger and vegetables. We also rate the red curry with pineapple and lychee or, if you want something crunchy, try the crispy tiger prawns with tamarind sauce. If you're after a sweet treat to finish off the feast, there are two excellent options: tapioca pudding with lychee and black sticky rice with coconut cream. Order both — we won't tell anyone.
