Straight from the pages of the latest instalment of the Tatler Dining Guide is our selection of the top Thai dining venues
Few things say comfort food like a hearty serving of Thai food, from pad Thai and crispy chicken wings to tom yum or crab omelette. Here in Malaysia, we have a plethora of restaurants to choose from when looking to satiate those cravings for sweet, sour, and textural Thai fare. Finish the meal with sweet endings in the form of mango sticky rice, and few meals are as satisfying.
You’ll be spoiled for choice when deciding where to dine with our round-up of the city’s best establishments for Thai food, in alphabetical order, from this year’s Tatler Dining Guide.
