Naam Pla Thai Kitchen

Some of Victoria’s finest Thai food lives behind the unlikely stained-glass facade of a former pharmacist. Expect the unexpected. Spicy,bite-size mung bean croquettes are served with sour tamarind-chilli sauce while marinated black tofu is slow-cooked in a five-spiced soy broth before being wok-fried with baby corn,snowpeas and shiitake. A delicate wild ginger curry with tender basa fillets,beans,bamboo and Thai eggplant reveals the finely tuned balancing act of hot,sweet,salty and sour. Roti,freshly made to order,is the ultimate sopping-up companion. The staff are passionate and knowledgeable,making dining a joy.
