Having heard great things about Khao Pla I was interested in how I would find it, and it certainly didn't disappoint. Having lived in Thailand for 7 years I've sampled the wide spectrum of Thai cuisine and yesterday's lunch left me in no doubt this is up there with the very best, both here and in Thailand. We had 5 dishes between us and in my mind they ranged from very good to sensational.
The standout dish for me was the Banana Blossom Salad, a perfect blend of sweet, sour, salt and chilli with poached chicken and prawns. To die for! The best Crying Tiger I have ever tasted- succulent wagyu beef with a perfectly balanced dipping sauce. And don't miss the Sticky Black Rice for dessert- served on a tapioca base with Thai tea ice cream and jackfruit. Simply divine...
The only complaint I had was that it gets very noisy when full and my elderly mum struggled to hear the conversation. A small price to pay when you get to eat the best Thai I've had in Australia, and up there with the best ever.
Well done Pla, we will be back!
The best Thai food I and my partner have ever had so far!!! Not even one of the best but the BEST!!! Beat Chat Thai for sure.
Food was served fast and staff there were so lovely :) Twice cooked pork ribs and fish curry in banana leaf are exceptional. That Thai iced tea ice cream though � is def the top of the night.
We will keep coming for more!!!
Thia is the best Thai we tasted and the banana blossom is a must!
