F AMO US T HAI CUSINE Introdu ction BAR and RE S T AUR ANT In all countries and all cultures enjoyment of food is important. Moreover, it is important that guests enjoy not only the food but the hospitality that is offered. Thailand is no exception. In fact the word Thailand, food and hospitality go together. When you step into Mai Thai Restaurant you will enjoy not only superb Thai cuisine and hospitality but also an introduction to the world of Thailand. There is no one Thailand. Each city, each town, each village has its unique style. The excitement, bustle and noise of Bangkok, the modernity of its fast rail and entertainment and shopping without match. The night markets where that special bargain can be found. Chiang Mai with its thousands of years of history and the splendour of its ancient temples. Amphawa with its floating market, homestays and restaurants. The cool of the mountains in the North and an elephant ride for the first time or a choice of beach resorts. The gracefulness of Thai dancing and the contrast with the speed and vigour of Thai boxing. The warmth and gentleness of the people. All of these contrasting and varied elements make up the spirit and soul of Thailand. The subtleties and contrasts of Thailand are there in the cuisine of Mai Thai. There is a blend of tastes: Hot, Sour, Salty, Sweet, Spicy and the subtle addition of locally ground roots, grass and aromatic herbs that soothe while leaving you with the full taste of the dish that you have chosen. The various seasonings and saucy spices can be added according to your taste. Order your favourite dish or sample a banquet style meal and enjoy the combination of flavours and food that bring all of Thailand to your table. Your enjoyment is important to us.
