Thai House

Thai House in Khadki serves phenomenal Thai food and we can vouch for the authenticity since it’s owned by a Thai couple who have flown in from Bangkok. The menu is smart and simple which is segregated into the vegetarian and non-vegetarian selection of soups, appetizers, stir-fry section and mains. For the mains, there is so much to choose from especially amongst rice and noodles. We went ahead and tried the Chicken Stir-Fried Suki, essentially pan tossed noodles with chicken, veggies and a special Thai spicy sauce. While there are other classical options in the mains and other sections of the menu, like the quintessential Thai Curry, Panang Curry served with puffy steamed rice. If you love Asian food, especially Thai then you must visit Thai House.
