Firstly, kudos for the pun! And secondly, we're in love with Thai cuisine. All over again.
All thanks to this newly launched delivery kitchen called Thaiphoon. There's no doubt about the fact that Thai cuisine has garnered quite a popularity in Mumbai since a decade or so. And being a sucker for Asian cuisine, I kinda go all out and am always on a hunt for hidden gems which deliver that authentic taste and delicacy here in Mumbai. And I'm super excited to share my latest discovery - Thaiphoon. Kickstarted in September 2020, this new-age eatery is literally bringing a piece of Thailand here. Thaiphoon is founded by a husband-wife duo - Chef Suriya Preechapiputpong and John Macedonius Fernandes. The chef, being a Thai national herself, brings along the Thai heritage along with her spectacular culinary skills. Fun fact: she's got her own noodle soup shop in Thailand.
Their menu offers a wide array of Thai dishes divided into appetisers, salad, broth noodle bowls, curry bowls, wok-style noodles and desserts. Expect authentic Thai dishes including Khanom Jeeb (steamed dumplings), Poh Pia Pod (Thai-style spring rolls), Som Tam Polamai (spicy Thai fruit salad), Kuay Tiaw Tomyum Gai (Ramen noodles with spicy peanut sauce), Suki Naam (glass noodles with prawn and fish), p curry (served with rice, peanuts and potatoes), Laksa, Drunken noodles (stir-fried noodles), Pad Thai and lots more. Their menu is pretty self-explanatory, which a crisp explainer against each dish. Phew! Yet confused? Go for their signature dishes which includes Thai green and Red Curry, Drunken Noodles, Khanom Jeeb, Pad Thai & Pad Ka Prao Gai Tod.
Lastly, to end it on a sweet note, try their yummy desserts. They've got three desserts namely - Bua Loy (rice dumplings with sweet coconut milk), Khao Niew Naa Nual (sweetened rice topped with coconut milk and black beans) and Khanom Moh Keang Thua (Thai custard).
While their joint is located in Andheri West, they're delivering across Mumbai. They're available on Swiggy and Zomato. You can also simply ping them on WhatsApp at +91-9321452654, they're super responsive.
