Spices Thai Cafe

That Spices Thai Café is famed for their spicy food is a given, but remember: all dishes can be toned down upon request. Spices’ cuisine is authentically Thai and richly complex, all without the use of MSG. Staff are exceedingly gracious, and will always appreciate a Sawatdee-Kaa (women) or -Krahb (men).

Veggies Tempura takes a Thai twist with plum sauce and crushed peanuts. The crunchy Mee Krob, made notorious by an episode of South Park, is actually delicious. Don’t tell your rubber ducky about the Spices’ Duckling—half a crispy duck with spicy sauce and basil. The tame will love the Pattaya Pineapple, stuffed with chicken, shrimp, and cashew nuts, while the more enterprising might dare to try the deep-fried frog legs.
