Thai in a nutshell

The food and interior design of this dimly lit Thai restaurant is a bit out of the ordinary, but the taste is deliciously familiar.

We warmed up with the Stewed Soft-shelled Turtle with Chicken and Yam soup (RMB29)–the unexpected chicken bones were a bit of a disappointment. The polite staff swiftly brought out the Thai Stir Fried Rice (RMB39) and House Special 4 Delicacies Combo (RMB59), which improved our impression with every bite. Fish cakes, chicken, spring rolls with sweet and slightly spicy sauce are perfect for customers desiring a taste of everything.

We recommend the papaya and coconut chichi (RMB25) for dessert, if not for its sweet juice, then for the enormous shaved coconut you'll be sipping it from.
