Phayathai offers an extensive menu of traditional Thai dishes found throughout the whole of Thailand that will not only excite your taste buds with delicious flavors ranging from salty to spicy and sweet to sour but are also full of vibrant colors, textures and robust aromas. These dishes are prepared with several herbs and spices that make up the heart of Thai cuisine including basil, lemongrass, garlic, kaffir lime leaves, galangal and ginger.
