Thanks to Spice Thai you don't have to spend money on a flight to Thailand, you can just stop off at the restaurant in Liverpool to try authentic flavours and national dishes. Open seven days a week, this small but mighty venue prepares Thai food for dine in, takeaway or delivery.
Its bright branding is a nod to the lively, bustling street food scene of Thailand from which it takes its inspiration. The fun nature of the restaurant's concept makes it an ideal place to introduce the family to a world of fragant and spicy dishes.
Start off with a selection of starters to share among friends and family. The signature fish cakes are a must as well as an authentic chicken satay, while vegetarian options include crispy vegetable spring rolls and deep fried tofu. Perhaps save a portion of prawn crackers to snack on while you wait for your main course, but thats only if you can resist the crunch and the sweet chilli dipping sauce!
The main courses are certainly showstopper material, particularly when it comes to the weeping tiger grilled main - marinated sirloin steak is presented to the table on a sizzling hot plate for maximum wow-factor. Of course, it wouldn't be a thai restaurant without the classics - massamun curry, panang curry and pad thai, all taking their rightful place. If you're not a fan of heat, perhaps avoid the pad kee mao udon dish; drunken udon noodles, beans, bamber shoots and peppers are all stir fried with basil, garlic and chilli- ranking it as two chillies on the restaurant's heat scale.
If you need something to wash down the spice, try one of the classic cocktails, a signature Spice Thai cocktail; or stick with authenticity and test out a thai milk tea soft drink - they do say to drink milk to cool off the spice of chilli!
